Question
Answer
show "bipolar lead" AKA bipolar bc they are composed of 2 electrodes; a neg. and pos. one; ECG records the difference in electrical potential btwn them  
🗑
show same distance from the heart: R. Arm <--> L. Arm R. Arm <--> L. Leg L. Arm <--> L. Leg  
🗑
show the electrical activity in 2 directions (<--->)  
🗑
show from the heart to the ____: aVR - R. Arm aVL - L. Arm aVF - L. Foot  
🗑
augmented limb leads   show
🗑
chest leads   show
🗑
show unipolar V1-V6 (where you pick up the signal of the heart)  
🗑
show - standard leads l, ll, lll produce POSITIVE deflections on the graph - augmented lead aVR produces a negative deflection - augmented lead aVL & aVF produces a POSITIVE deflection  
🗑
what are leads?   show
🗑
show the electrodes may be misplaced  
🗑
chest leads and waveforms NOTE:   show

🗑
difference between unipolar and V1-V6?   show
🗑
show lead l, ll, lll  
🗑
show (+) R. Arm <---> L. Arm (-)  
🗑
show (+) R. Arm <--> L. Leg (-)  
🗑
lead lll includes?   show
🗑
which leads form the Einthoven's Triangle?   show
🗑
electrodes are?   show

🗑
T/F: A multichannel electrocardiograph, such as 3-channel or 6-channel, records multiple leads at once in about 10 seconds   show
🗑
show each separate view of the heart  
🗑
show standard "bipolar" leads (lead l, ll, lll)  
🗑
what are the 3 leads, that uses 1 limb electrode to record the heart's electrical activity?   show
🗑
show aVR  
🗑
show lead l, ll, lll & aVL, aVF  
🗑
