What are Seattle Children’s Heart Center ECG consult services?
Seattle Children’s Heart Center offers pediatric electrocardiogram (known as ECG or EKG) consultation services to help community providers in our region who desire advanced evaluation of their pediatric patient’s ECG studies.
What if I have never had an ECG consult with Children’s Heart Center team before?
If you have not had an ECG consult with Seattle Children’s Heart Center, before uploading a study you will need to request and establish an account by calling 206-987-2015.
