ECG and EchoCG in Dnipro

Heart diseases today are among the most common worldwide. Timely diagnosis is crucial to prevent complications from developing.

Difference Between EchoCG and ECG

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is performed using electric currents and allows for the determination of the heart rhythm as well as the intervals between contractions and relaxation of the heart. ECG is a mandatory procedure during any inpatient treatment and also during routine medical check-ups for adults and children from 3 months of age. The results provided by the doctor after the examination show whether the heart is functioning normally or if there are any abnormalities. However, the underlying cause of the disease is not determined with an ECG.
Echocardiography (EchoCG) is a modern technology used to diagnose heart diseases. Unlike ECG, EchoCG also helps identify the cause of the deviations. During the examination, information about the heart's size, structure, and chamber volume is displayed on the monitor. It is also possible to see scars (if present) in real-time and assess the condition of the pericardium and myocardium. All the information obtained is recorded in a protocol, enabling the specialist to accurately diagnose and prescribe the necessary treatment.

Diagnostic Methods:

Electrocardiogram (ECG) – A specific and low-sensitivity screening method for diagnosing heart conditions, which only allows for assumptions about potential heart disorders. ECG does not detect ischemic changes.
24-Hour ECG Monitoring – Determines the presence of rhythm abnormalities and heart conduction issues, helps analyze ischemic changes, and monitors the effects of cardiological and other medications on the heart.
Cardiorespiratory Functional State Diagnostics with Treadmill ECG and Holter BP Monitoring.
EchoCG (Ultrasound Heart Examination) – Determines the condition of various parts of the heart.
Doppler Ultrasound of Blood Vessels.
24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring.
