ECG: Check the electrical activity of the heart, help to find whether there is structural or functional abnormalities of the heart, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, etc. 4. Cardiac ultrasound: can assess the structure and function of the heart, understand the hypertrophy of the heart and whether there is heart valve disease, etc. 5.
