GP doctor explains a heart ECG to a male patient
MODEL RELEASED. Heart consultation. General practice (GP) doctor explains a heart ECG to a male patient. The electrocardiogram (ECG) trace shows the normal rhythm of his heartbeat. The trace was taken by connecting the patient by electrodes to an ECG machine. The machine detects the tiny electrical signals associated with the beating of the heart muscle. This shows the condition of the heart and can detect disorders such as arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeat) which results from a disturbance in the electrical impulses

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a general practice (GP) doctor can be seen explaining a heart electrocardiogram (ECG) to a male patient. With the model's consent, this heart consultation captures an important moment of medical education and care. The ECG trace displayed in the image showcases the normal rhythm of the patient's heartbeat. This trace was obtained by connecting electrodes to an ECG machine, which detects minuscule electrical signals associated with the contraction of the heart muscle. By analyzing these signals, doctors can assess the condition of the patient's heart and identify any potential disorders such as arrhythmia – an abnormal heartbeat caused by disturbances in electrical impulses. This photograph beautifully encapsulates both science and compassion within healthcare. The GP doctor attentively guides their patient through understanding their own cardiac health while providing vital information about their ECG results. It exemplifies how medical professionals strive not only to diagnose and treat but also to educate patients about their well-being. Science Photo Library has skillfully captured this significant moment between doctor and patient, emphasizing that knowledge is power when it comes to maintaining a healthy heart.
