What Is an Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)?

An Electrocardiogram is a non-invasive test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. It helps detect abnormalities such as irregular heartbeats, damaged heart muscle, poor blood flow, and other cardiac conditions. ECGs are quick, painless, and essential when evaluating heart-related symptoms.

What We Evaluate During Your ECG:
  • Heart rate and electrical rhythm
  • Signs of arrhythmias (fast, slow, or irregular beats)
  • Evidence of past or current heart muscle strain
  • Possible cardiac ischemia or poor blood flow
  • Effects of medications or electrolyte imbalances
  • Correlation between symptoms and heart function

Why Early ECG Testing Matters

In-clinic ECG testing offers quick and reliable results with the ability to discuss findings directly with a provider. At Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care Clinic®, patients benefit from comprehensive cardiac evaluation in a clinical setting.

  • Identify cardiac issues before they become serious
  • Diagnose the cause of chest pain, palpitations, or dizziness
  • Support safe monitoring of ongoing heart conditions
  • Help determine if additional testing or urgent care is required

Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care

What is an Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)?

An ECG is a diagnostic test that records the electrical activity of your heart to detect abnormalities such as irregular heartbeats, poor blood flow, or heart muscle damage.

When should I get an ECG?

You should consider an ECG if you experience chest pain, palpitations, dizziness, fainting, shortness of breath, or a family history of heart disease.

Can the ECG be done at home?

Yes. Mobile clinicians can perform a full clinical-grade ECG in your home and review the results with you immediately.

Is ECG testing safe?

ECGs are completely safe, painless, and non-invasive. No electricity enters your body.

How long does an ECG take?

The test itself typically takes 5–10 minutes, with additional time for interpretation and consultation.

What conditions can an ECG detect?

An ECG can identify arrhythmias, heart block, ischemia, previous heart attacks, and other electrical abnormalities of the heart.

Do I need a referral for an ECG?

No referral is required. You can schedule directly for either in-home or in-clinic ECG services.

Is this covered by insurance?

Most insurance plans cover ECG testing, depending on symptoms and medical necessity. Coverage varies by plan.

Can ECGs detect heart attacks?

ECGs can show signs of active or past heart attacks, but additional testing may be needed depending on symptoms.

Can ECG testing be used for routine screening?

Yes. ECGs are often used for baseline heart health assessments, especially in patients with risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a history of heart disease.

Are ECG results available immediately?

Yes. Providers review results with you during your visit and recommend further steps if needed.

Do children or athletes need ECGs?

ECGs may be recommended for young athletes, children with symptoms, or individuals participating in high-intensity sports.

What if my ECG is abnormal?

If abnormalities are found, your provider will guide you on next steps, which may include lab work, repeat ECG, imaging, medication, or cardiology referral.

Can an ECG diagnose anxiety-related symptoms?

An ECG helps rule out cardiac conditions when symptoms such as palpitations or chest tightness may be caused by anxiety.
