Changing lifestyle and nutrition have led to many serious
health problems as in this fast pace world which is running at a lightning
speed we often tend to ignore our health and exert ourselves and this makes us prone to heart as well as
various health problems.
An ECG stands for electrocardiogram machine which is one of the devices used in
diagnosis of patients which are having heart-related problems. It is advised by
physicians to the people who experiences, dizziness, weakness, difficulty in
breathing, chest pain and shortness of breath.
How ECG machine works?
The main mechanism of ECG
machine is that it records the electrical impulses emitted by the heart and it
is non-invasive procedure so the patient who undergoes such diagnostic
procedure doesn’t feel any discomfort during the process.
ECG machines produce a graph
displaying signals and doctors can easily read them and identify the
abnormalities in the heart such as any type of thickening of the walls,
blockages in arteries. Some ECG machines are designed to detect real time heart
rates of the patients and can be used during heart surgeries.
It detects heartbeat rate and
regularity, position and size of heart chambers, any damaged as well as
diseased tissue and various other structural abnormalities. It is also capable
in detecting pacemakers and surgical repairs as well effects of various drugs
on the heart. However, ECG cannot detect blood flow. It also detects heart
conditions like heart murmur, arrhythmia that is irregular heartbeats and
Myocardial infarction also known as “heart attack”. It
also detects Syncope or seizures.
Parts of an ECG Machine
ECG machine consists of circuitry box which houses
the machine and which is linked to number of electrodes. These electrodes
detect impulses which are recorded in pairs and each pair is called lead. If
you are looking for effective and quality ECG machine then you can get in
contact with Allengers who are known as leading electrocardiograph machinemanufacturer. It supplies electrocardiograph
machines within India as well as abroad.
