cardiogram
Pulse wave printout
A cardiogram is a visual record of heart activity, produced by monitoring electrical impulses or other cardiac functions.
The term usually refers to an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), which traces the heart's electrical patterns as a series of waves on paper or screen: The doctor studied the cardiogram for irregularities.
