Wiki EKG at Each Yearly visit

[JParker5]

HI,

Hope your all have a great day.....

Question. Is it normal for peds cardiologisit to perfom an EKG at each yearly visit. Patient is not having any problems. But he was diagnosis with Tetralogy. The same day they did an Echo but i believe the EKG was done prior with the Office visit. Any thoughts.

Thank You

If a patient has a cardiac history it it normal to do an ekg yearly and sooner if pt is having problems.
