What does an EKG Technician do?
EKG Technicians are an integral part of the management of patients with heart disease. They are also known as cardiovascular technicians.

An EKG technician adheres electrodes to the patient’s chest, arms, and legs. An EKG machine is used to trace and record electrical impulses transmitted by the patient's heart. After data is collected, the EKG technician prints an EKG for evaluation by the physician. An EKG technician with advanced training performs Holter monitoring and stress testing.
