At Fusion Healthcare we now offer private ECG in Luton and the surrounding area.
An ECG (electrocardiogram) is one of the most common heart tests which monitors your heart rate, rhythm and electrical activity. The test discovers any issues and abnormalities with the heart’s electrical impulses.
Do I need an ECG?
An ECG heart scan is a basic test into the health of the heart. ECG results can help diagnose any potential abnormalities to the hearts function or rhythm.
There are a number of symptoms that warrant ECG monitoring:
- Shortness of breath
- Significantly high blood pressure
- Heart palpitations
- Irregular heart beat
- Family history of heart problems
- Chest pain
- Fatigue
Multiple ECGs over a period of time may be used to monitor a known heart condition.
ECGs can also be used to monitor heart health while on a medication know to affect the heart.
What can an ECG detect?
ECGs are valuable in assessing the heart and are able to highlight any abnormalities that may be present, this is done by evaluating the hearts electrical activity.
ECGs can detect:
- Arrythmias
- Cardiomyopathy
- Heart attack
- Coronary heart disease
If you have noticed any abnormal symptoms, an ECG may be able to find the root cause.
How is it done?
One of our Fusion Healthcare qualified clinicians will carry out the scan. Electrodes will be attached to the chest using an adhesive and wires will be used to connect these to the machine. Our clinicians will ensure that the electrodes are secure and are providing an accurate reading throughout the scan. The signals received from the electrodes are translated to readings on the machine; these readings are interpreted by our in-house doctor to determine any abnormalities.
The entire process is quick, easy and safe. Patients may experience a mild reaction to the adhesive used to attach the electrodes, this should clear up after a couple of days
