One of the benefits of EKGs is that they’re a very time-effective test to perform. It typically takes about 10 minutes to set up the equipment and attach the electrodes to your skin. The actual process of getting the recording from EKG equipment takes only seconds. Overall, you can expect the total preparation and recording process to take between 10-15 minutes. While this test can be performed very quickly, it’s important to note that it may take between 1-2 days to receive your results. This is because the results often have to be sent to a heart specialist to be interpreted before they get returned to your doctor. Your primary physician, or attending healthcare provider, may call you or schedule you for a follow-up appointment to deliver your results. If your physician requires you to get an EKG, contact the healthcare professionals at Reddy Urgent Care.
