A private ECG (electrocardiogram) for a child is a quick, painless recording of the heart's electrical activity. It's used to investigate palpitations, fainting, chest pain, a heart murmur, or a family history of heart conditions — and to give reassurance.

Small stickers are placed on the chest for a few minutes; nothing is uncomfortable, and your child stays with you throughout.

What It Can Show

An ECG checks the heart's rhythm and the timing of its electrical signals, helping detect rhythm disturbances and some inherited conditions. It's often the first test when a child has symptoms or a relevant family history, and is interpreted by a clinician — ideally with paediatric cardiology expertise.

Further tests such as an echocardiogram may be advised depending on the findings.

When a Child Might Need One

Common reasons include palpitations, fainting (especially on exertion), chest pain with exercise, a murmur picked up by a doctor, or screening when a close relative has an inherited heart condition.

At The Vesey a paediatric ECG can be arranged without a referral.
