Understanding Your Heart Health
What can an EKG test really tell you?
On this episode of the podcast, our host explores the benefits and limitations of the electrocardiogram, commonly known as an EKG. An EKG is a simple yet important cardiac diagnostic tool that evaluates heart rhythm and electrical activity. But can it determine overall heart health on its own?
Key topics covered:
- What is an EKG and how does it work?
- What conditions can an EKG detect such as arrhythmias and heart attacks?
- The limitations of an EKG in diagnosing heart disease and predicting future risk
- When additional cardiac tests may be needed to gain a fuller picture of heart health over time
Through an engaging and easy-to-understand dialogue, our host explains why an EKG shouldn't be the sole determinant of heart health and emphasizes the value of long-term monitoring with your doctor's guidance. Tune in for this insightful program on optimizing heart health assessment.
