EKG
ECG (electrocardiogram). The initialism "EKG" was introduced because "ECG" was too easily confused with "EEG" (electroencephalogram), when interpreting verbal orders.
An ECG (Electrocardiography) machine.
ECG stands for ElectroCardioGram
CPT code 93005 refers to the electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) interpretation service provided by a physician or qualified healthcare professional. This code specifically denotes the interpretation of an ECG report performed by another party, such as a technician. It is typically used in conjunction with the ECG procedure codes to bill for the physician's review and interpretation of the results.
Never. An ECG is a test, not an illness or disease.
An ECG provides information about the wearer of the ECG's heartrate and rhythm of the heart. It provides information about wether it is normal or abnormal.
The portion of the ECG that corresponds to atrial depolarization is called the P wave. The P wave is the first wave on the ECG.
Electrocardiogram is also known as ECG or EKG
It can be tested with something called an ecg simulator.
The ECG sign of subendocardial ischemia is ST segment depression. Note that ECG is used more now that EKG.
ECG A portable, limited use electrocardiogram (ECG) recording device (100) is provided for diagnosing cardiac problems. The device (100) includes a cover (102) hingedly connected to a base (104) provided with a pair of spaced apart, tactile-sensing electrodes (117) engageable with the patient's hands (118) during an ECG recording and at least one indicator light (119) signaling a start and finish status of the ECG recording. A circuit (124) is electrically connected to the electrodes (117) and the status indicator light (119) and includes a processor (126) and memory (127) for receiving and storing ECG signals from the patient touching the electrodes (117). The cover (102) has an outer face (105) provided with preprinted mailing information (107) for returning the recording device in a folded, closed position to a location for retroactively analyzing the stored ECG signals. The device (100) may be disposed of following analysis of the stored ECG signals.
