Concerned About Heart Health? An EKG Can Provide Crucial Answers.

Do you experience occasional heart palpitations, shortness of breath, or dizziness? These could be signs of an underlying heart condition. Early detection is key to preventing serious complications.

At Coastal Primary Care, we offer electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) testing right in our office. This quick, painless procedure provides valuable insights into your heart's rhythm and function, helping us identify potential issues early on.

What is an EKG and How Does it Work?

An EKG is a non-invasive test that records your heart's electrical activity using small electrodes placed on your chest, arms, and legs. This information is displayed as a graph, allowing our healthcare providers to assess your heart rate, rhythm, and identify any abnormalities.

Why Might You Need an EKG?

Your doctor may recommend an EKG for various reasons, including:

  • Diagnosing heart conditions: EKG helps identify arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats), previous heart attacks, and other cardiac issues.
  • Evaluating symptoms: It helps determine the cause of symptoms like palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fainting.
  • Monitoring treatment: EKGs track the effectiveness of heart medications and pacemakers.
  • Assessing risk: For patients with certain risk factors, EKG may be used to screen for potential heart problems.

Benefits of EKG in Primary Care:

  • Early detection: EKGs can uncover underlying heart conditions before they become serious.
  • Improved access: Offering EKG in our office makes cardiac care more convenient and accessible for our patients.
  • Faster diagnosis: On-site testing means quicker results and faster treatment if needed.
