ECG Lead Placement / Electrocardiogram - Clinical Skills - Dr Gill ** some people have asked which ECG machine is being used here - this is the Wellue 12-Lead ECG Tablet - you can see it here- I’ve reached out the to company and they have provided a 15% code: James15 Please note, this isn’t an affiliate code, I’m not making anything here, just trying to help 😊 ** Whilst perhaps not a core day to day skill of the medic, being able to take an ECG is a valuable skill. Although perhaps less than the interpretation of the ECG which we will look to cover in another video The ECG or Electrocardiogram is a core part of any cardiology examination, and thus would expect to undertake in order to complete the cardiac exam - as can be seen here This video will go over the ECG lead placement for a 12 lead electrocardiogram. The 12 lead ECG consists of 6 chest leads - lead V1-V6 and four cables to the limbs, allowing the recording of 6 limb leads, leads I, II, III, aVF, aVR and aVL #DrGill #ECG #ClinicalSkills
