DIPLOMA IN ELECTRO CARDIOGRAPHY

Electrocardiography (ECG) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time. It helps in detecting heart conditions such as arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac abnormalities. By placing electrodes on the patient’s body, the ECG machine produces a graphical representation of heartbeats, known as an electrocardiogram. This procedure is essential for monitoring heart health, assessing cardiac function, and guiding physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

The Diploma in Electrocardiography (ECG) Assistant program trains students to assist cardiologists and healthcare professionals in performing accurate and efficient ECG tests. Responsibilities include preparing patients, placing electrodes correctly, operating ECG machines, and recording high-quality tracings. Students learn to identify normal and abnormal cardiac rhythms, maintain equipment, and ensure infection control and patient safety. They also handle documentation, maintain patient records, and provide preliminary observations to the medical team. The course emphasizes technical skills, attention to detail, and professionalism, preparing graduates to work in hospitals, diagnostic centers, and cardiac care units under the supervision of experienced cardiologists and technicians.
