Electrocardiogram
An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG, abbreviated from the German Elektrokardiogramm) is a graphic produced by an electrocardiograph, which records the electrical activity of the heart over time. Understanding the various waves and normal vectors of depolarization and repolarization yields important diagnostic information.
