Electrocardiogram
Also known as EKG, is a standard screening test for Cardiac disease. EKGs are evaluated by Bluegrass Internal Medicine providers. It is frequently employed during a patient’s physical or cardiac exam. Likewise, it can be performed at the Bluegrass office for preoperative evaluation before a surgery. Frequently, the surgeon or specialist provides an order for the patient for a preoperative EKG. The patient then presents to the Bluegrass office to have the test performed.
