Holter Monitor Test  at Your Home :     A Holter monitor is a small, wearable device that records heartbeats. It's used to determine whether you're at risk of developing an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmias). A Holter monitor test may be used if a regular Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) does not provide enough information about the heart's condition. If the irregular heartbeats are infrequent, a longer-term monitor, such as an event recorder, may be required.     Why is it done this way?     If you experience any of the following symptoms, a Holter monitor may be recommended by your doctor:     Symptoms and signs of an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)    Fainting for no apparent reason     A heart ailment that makes arrhythmias more likely.     You'll get an electrocardiogram before getting a Holter monitor (ECG or EKG). An ECG is a rapid and painless test that checks the heart's rhythm using sensors (electrodes)...

Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) Test:     NCV is a medical diagnostic test that is often used to assess the function, particularly the ability of electrical conduction, of the human body's motor and sensory nerves. The NCV test is used to determine the extent of nerve injury and dysfunction. Peripheral nerves run outside of the brain and along the spinal cord. These nerves allow you to regulate your muscles and detect your surroundings. Nerves that are healthy send electrical messages faster and with more strength than nerves that are injured.    The NCV test aids the doctor in distinguishing between a nerve fibre injury and an injury to the protective coating that surrounds the nerve. It also aids your doctor in distinguishing between a nerve disorder and a condition in which the muscles have been impacted by a nerve injury. Making these distinctions is necessary for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.      Dr. Jolly Diagnostics is a premier ...

Electroencephalogram (EEG) :     An Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test that detects electrical exertion in your brain using small, essence discs (electrodes) attached to your crown. Your brain cells communicate via electrical impulses and are active all the time, indeed when you are asleep. This exertion shows up as crimpy lines on an EEG recording.       An EEG is one of the main individual tests for epilepsy. An EEG can also play a part in diagnosing other brain diseases.       Why is it done this way?       An EEG can detect variations in brain activity that can aid in the diagnosis of several brain illnesses, including epilepsy and other seizure disorders. An EEG can also be used to diagnose or treat the following conditions:        1. a tumour in the brain       2. Head injury causes brain damage.       3. Brain dysfunction can be caused by a number of factors (encephalopath...
