An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart to identify heart rhythm issues, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions.
No special preparation is usually required. You may be asked to remove any metal objects or wear a hospital gown for ease of access to the chest area.
You can eat and drink normally before the test. However, avoid consuming large amounts of caffeine or alcohol as they might affect the results.
ECGs are very safe and non-invasive. There are no known risks or side effects associated with the test.
In most cases, you can continue taking your medications as prescribed. However, inform your healthcare provider about any medications you are taking.

Unlike traditional TB tests, the GeneXpert test provides faster results and can detect drug-resistant strains of TB by analyzing genetic material.
No special preparation is required. Provide a sputum sample, ideally collected in the morning, and follow any specific instructions from your healthcare provider.
Results are usually available within 1 to 2 days after the sample is processed, providing a rapid diagnosis.
The test offers accurate and quick detection of TB and drug-resistant strains, which is crucial for effective treatment and control of TB infections.
