The Diploma in ECG Technician is a specialized 2-year paramedical program designed to train students in electrocardiography and cardiac monitoring techniques. This comprehensive course focuses on understanding the electrical activity of the heart, operating ECG equipment, performing various cardiac diagnostic tests, and assisting cardiologists in patient care. Students gain expertise in recording, analyzing, and interpreting heart rhythms, preparing them for critical roles in cardiology departments and cardiac care units.
An Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) is one of the most fundamental diagnostic tools in modern medicine, used to detect heart diseases, arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions. ECG Technicians are essential healthcare professionals who perform these life-saving tests, monitor cardiac patients, and provide critical support to cardiologists. With cardiovascular diseases being the leading cause of death globally and in India, skilled ECG technicians are in constant demand across hospitals, clinics, and cardiac care centers.
