Leads from an ECG machine are attached to the skin on your hand, legs and
chest using sticky patch. These leads study signal from your heart and send this information to the ECG. The ECG machine then prints the on a screen or reading on a paper strip. The test is not useful in routine checkups for people who do not have risk factors for heart disease such as high blood pressure or symptoms of heart disease, like chest pain.
