| + | ===== Summary ===== | ||
| + | An **electrocardiogram** (**ECG** or **EKG**, abbreviated from the German //Elektrokardiogramm//) is a graphic produced by an electrocardiograph, which records the electrical voltage in the heart in the form of a continuous strip graph. It is the prime tool in cardiac electrophysiology, and has a prime function in screening and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. | ||
