Mechanism of action of an electrolysym

The article was consulted professionally by Dr. Nguyen Quoc Viet – Interventional Cardiologist – Department of Medical Examination and Internal Medicine – Share99 Da Nang International Health Hub.

Electrolyses is a very common test in most medical facilities today. This is a fairly simple subclinical test, which does not cause complications for the patient but the diagnostic value is very high.

1. What is electrocardiary?

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a graph that records changes in the current inside the heart. As a non-invasive sub-clinical means, does not cause complications and gives fast results.

Electrocardigraphy is often used in medicine, this is a common test to detect a number of conditions and monitor the condition of the heart in many situations, cardiovascular diseases. An electrolysic device is also standard in the operating room and in the ambulance.

2. How does the electrolysym work?

The heart contracts to the rhythm and is controlled by a conduction system in the myocardial muscle. The currents of the heart are very small, only about a few thousand volts but can be traced from the electrolyts placed on the hands, legs and chest of the patient transmitted to the recorder. These electrolys (sensors) are usually held for several minutes. The electric recorder will ampl up the signal and record it on the electrolysic meter.

The electrocardic line is shown as folded lines, up and down variations according to the contraction rate of the heart. When measuring the electrocardigraph, the patient is in the position of lying on his back, so that doctors attach electrolyses from the electrocardigraph to the heart, wrist and ankle areas of the patient according to the defined locations. These electrolyses are attached to the skin and do not cause pain during measurement.

3. What is electrocardicardiary measurement for?

Electrocardicardiary measurement is one of the routine tests in the hospital. The purpose of the electrolysym examination includes:

  • Check the heart rate, diagnose arrhythmias.

Mechanism of action of an electrolysym

Check your heart rate
  • Diagnosis of heart attack (Coronary heart disease)
  • Check for abnormalities such as thick, stretched heart muscles …
  • Electrocardigraphy is used to examine and diagnose cardiovascular diseases, monitor and check the condition of some patients who have been diagnosed with open heart valves, hypertension, dyslipidemia,pericarditis … with typical symptoms such as shortness of breath, angina.

4. When to take an electrocardicardiary test?

Electrocardicardiary measurement may be in the following cases by the doctor:

  • Examination and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in cases with manifestations such as arrhythmias, shortness of breath, chest pain …
  • Check and monitor the condition of patients diagnosed with diseases such as heart failure,open heart valves, myocardial anemia, myocardial infarction, hypertension patients, diabetes mellitus …
  • Screening for the risk of cardiovascular diseases
  • Preparing for surgery…

5. Limitations of electrolyses

An electrolysic unit is a simple and valuable test. Sometimes electrocardicardiosis can definitively diagnose a certain cardiovascular pathology. However, an electrocardia may not be able to rule out serious heart conditions. For example, an abnormal heart rate appears and then disappears, the electrocardicardiary result is recorded at normal times between abnormal rhythms.

In addition, not all heart attacks can be detected by an electrocardigraph. Common heart diseases such as angina can also not be detected with a regular electrocardic. Specialized electrolysed electrolyses sometimes help overcome some limitations of regular electrolyses, which are:

  • Exertional electrolysym: done during exertion (jogging on rolling mats or cycling). This helps to assess the severity of the blockage of the coronary artery that causes angina.
  • Mobile electrocardigraph: the patient will carry a small machine that constantly records the heart rate. This method will record electrocardicardiary activity while walking (mobile) and perform normal daily activities aimed at detecting abnormal heart rhythms, which may appear and disappear. Electrocardicardiary activity is usually recorded in 24-48 hours.

6. What to note when performing electrocardicardiary measurements?

What to note when performing electrocardicardiary measurements?
  • The implementation of the electrolysic system takes about a few minutes.
  • The doctor will attach 10 electrolyts with pieces that stick to the skin of the chest, arms and legs.
  • During the measurement, the person being measured will lie on his back, the electrocardigraph creates a graph on paper, drawing electrical impulses moving through the heart.
  • It may take about 5-10 minutes to mount the electrolyses and complete the test, but graphing actually takes only a few seconds.
  • In addition to standard electrocardiinal measurements, your doctor may recommend other types of electrocard centers (check your heart's electrical activity for 1-2 days, 24 hours a day).
  • After measuring the electrocardigraph, the cardiologist will read the graph waves recorded during the examination to see if the pulses are normal and let the patient know the results on the same day of the procedure or on the next appointment.
  • The patient can resume normal activities after electrolysing.

The results of an electrocardiose test require a cardiologist to read and make a conclusion, so the professional role of the doctor in the electrocardigraphy is very important.

When performing electrolysers at Share99 International Health Hub, patients can be assured because there is not only a standard implementation process, modern machinery system but also a team of highly skilled doctors throughout the country, so that the diagnosis results are accurate, contributing significantly to the identification of the disease and the stage of the disease.

Dr. Nguyen Quoc Viet has more than 20 years of experience in examining and treating cardiovascular diseases and Cardiovascular Interventions (including scans, nong, coronary artery stent placement, renal arteries …), placing a temporary, permanent pacemaker … Before working at the Medical Examination and Internal Medicine Department, Share99 Da Nang International Health Hub, the doctor had a long time working at Da Nang Health Hub.
