An electrocardiogram (ECG), also known as an electrocardiograph, is a valuable technique used to evaluate the electrical activity of the heart. During a resting ECG, a subject remains still while leads are placed on their chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes detect the subtle electrical signals generated by the heart as it contracts.

Electrocardiography at Rest: A Baseline Assessment
An electrocardiogram (ECG) or electrocardiograph at rest is a fundamental tool in cardiology. It provides a picture of the heart's electrical activity while a patient is peacefully resting. This baseline assessment helps to reveal any abnormalities in the heart's rhythm or conduction, which can indicate underlying medical issues. During a resting E
