Abstract:
The Alaska Federal Health Care Access Network includes a telecommunications network supporting telemedicine carts and store-and-forward telemedicine software throughout Alaska. Electrocardiograms are being acquired at remote locations and being interpreted at regional and tertiary care facilities as part of routine and acute care. This promising new technology is just beginning to have an impact on cardiovascular patient care.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
