Multiple electrodes are placed over the chest wall to monitor the electrical activity of the heart. Multiple ECGs are recorded at rest and while you are exercising on a treadmill. A cardiac technician and a medical practitioner will be with you and guide you throughout the test. Your heart rate, blood pressure and ECG will be continuously monitored. The test takes about 30 minutes to complete.
