An ECG Can Recognize the Signs of Blocked Arteries. Unfortunately, the accuracy of diagnosing blocked arteries further from the heart when using an ECG decrease, so your cardiologist may recommend an ultrasound, which is a non-invasive test, like a carotid ultrasound, to check for blockages in the extremities or neck.
- arrhythmias – where the heart beats too slowly, too quickly, or irregularly.
- coronary heart disease – where the heart’s blood supply is blocked or interrupted by a build-up of fatty substances.
- heart attacks – where the supply of blood to the heart is suddenly blocked.
Echocardiograms also provide highly accurate information on heart valve function. They can be used to identify leaky or tight heart valves. While the EKG can provide clues to many of these diagnoses, the echocardiogram is considered much more accurate for heart structure and function.
The symptoms of an artery blockage include chest pain and tightness, and shortness of breath. Imagine driving through a tunnel. On Monday, you encounter a pile of rubble. There is a narrow gap, big enough to drive through.
How long does the test take? The test usually takes 5 to 10 minutes.
It’s possible to have a heart attack despite a normal EKG reading. A limitation of EKG is that it cannot show an asymptomatic blockage in your arteries which may put you at risk of a future heart attack. EKGs are best used as a predictor of a future heart attack in combination with other tests.
