ECG for Nurses: 3, 5 and 12 Lead Placement (electrocardiogram)

ECG for Nurses: Lead Placement (electrocardiogram)
n this lesson, we will look at the differences between a 3, 5, and 12 lead System. It will draw upon the information covered in the anatomy and physiology review.
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
Recognize the difference between lead placements for a 3, 5 and 12 lead ECG
Explain why Lead II is the most common lead utilized at the bedside for assessment
Familiarity with the limb and chest leads on a 12 lead ECG and how the 12 lead helps with overall patient assessment and treatment
Describe some benefits of the 12 lead ECG when augmenting a lead II analysis
Explain the challenges with computer intelligence of the ECG machine

How can you locate the 4th intercostal space in someone with more adipose tissue

If the patient has amputated leg, where should I place the lead? Thank you

[@NurseMinder]

Great question! Place it closest to the affected limb - I.e hip

10:30 --- The 12-lead ECG isn't displaying sinus arrhythmia. Rather, it's showing sinus bradycardia interrupted by premature atrial complexes (PACs) occurring every third beat (i.e., atrial trigeminy). The 2nd, 5th, and 8th beats are PACs. All the other remaining beats are sinus in origin.

The great thing about ECG is we are always learning. I will look at it again
