ECG of a normal heart rate
Electrocardiogram. Hands holding an electrocardiogram (ECG) of a normal heart rate. An ECG measures the electrical activity of the heart. Contractions are caused by electrical signals between the upper (atrial) and lower (ventrical) chambers. The tall peak indicates the pumping action of the ventricles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate workings of a normal heart rate through an Electrocardiogram (ECG). The image depicts hands delicately holding the ECG, which measures the electrical activity of the heart. The human heart is a remarkable organ that relies on precise electrical signals to coordinate its contractions between the upper (atrial) and lower (ventrical) chambers. The ECG trace displayed in this photograph exhibits a healthy and steady rhythm, with each contraction clearly marked by distinct peaks. Of particular note is the tall peak that signifies the powerful pumping action of the ventricles, responsible for circulating blood throughout our bodies. In this snapshot captured by Science Photo Library, we witness not only a visual representation of biology but also gain insight into how medicine utilizes electrocardiography to monitor cardiac health. This image serves as a reminder of both our biological complexity and resilience. The caucasian hand gently cradling this medical marvel emphasizes humanity's role in understanding and caring for our own bodies. As we explore further into this realm of science, it becomes evident that measuring and interpreting these electrical impulses are crucial steps towards maintaining optimal cardiovascular well-being.
