ECG PART X - THE ROLE OF ECG IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE AND CRITICAL CARE
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that records the heart’s electrical activity to assess rhythm, rate, and overall heart health. It helps detect arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions quickly and noninvasively. Electrodes placed on the skin capture signals that provide detailed information about heart function. ECGs are widely used in medical exams, emergency care, and fitness assessments to monitor cardiovascular health and guide treatment decisions effe

MEASURING BLOOD PRESSURE
Measuring blood pressure assesses the force of blood against artery walls, helping detect hypertension, heart disease risks, and overall cardiovascular health. It’s done using a sphygmomanometer or digital monitor, recording systolic and diastolic pressure. Regular checks allow early detection of issues, guide treatment, and promote heart health. Accurate measurement is essential for managing wellness, preventing complications, and supporting long-term cardiovascular care.
