The Ultimate ECG Technician Certification Exam
(231).jpg "The Ultimate ECG Technician Certification Exam")
The electrocardiogram is a noninvasive test that is used to reflect underlying heart conditions. It works by measuring the electrical activity of the heart. Having practiced its use, are you sure you know all there is about how to use it? Take up this test and refresh your memory. All the best!
