MAKING ECG’S EASY
APPLICATION FOR THE
ECG
EVALUATING THE ECG
Upon completion one will be
able to:
• Describe what an ECG is.
• Describe the proper hook-up
procedure for a 12-Lead ECG
• Identify basic normal ECG
waveform morphology.
• Distinguish between basic ECG
arrhythmia and artifact.
2
QUICK REVIEW OF
HEART
Purpose
• Pumps blood
Basic Anatomy
• 4 chambers
• 2 sides
• 4 valves
3
THE CONDUCTINGY
SYSTEM
• SA Node
• Inter-nodal
pathway
• AV Node
• Bundle of HIS
• Bundle Branches
• Purkinje Fibers

12 LEAD ECG
Learning objectives:
Describe the correct
placement of all electrodes
Proper Skin preparation
Care of the ECG machine, wires
and electrodes
7
Principles of
Electrocardiograph
• Electrocardiograph – is the
instrument that records the
electrical activity of the heart
• Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the
record of that activity
8
HOOKING UP THE
12-LEAD ECG
• Proper skin prep
• Placement of the limb
electrodes
• Placement of the chest
electrodes
9
SKIN PREPARATION
• REASON FOR SKIN
PREPARATION
• 5 STEP METHOD
• 2 STEP METHOD

INFORMATION ON THE
12-LEAD ECG
17
WHAT YOU NEED TO
LOOK FOR
• Are the limb leads hooked up
correctly?
• Are the chest leads hooked up
correctly?
• Is the ECG free of artifact.
• Is this ECG a Critical Value
18
IS the ECG HOOKED UP
CORRECTLY?
LIMB LEADS
Normal 12-lead
• AVR – always
negative
• Lead I – always
positive
• Lead II, III –
positive or
biphasic
CHEST LEADS
COLUMN III
• R wave progression
• Small to Tall
COLUMN IV
• R wave progression
• Tall to Small
19
RULING OUT LIMB LEAD
REVERSAL
• Avr is always negative
• Lead I is always positive
• Lead II and III positive for the P
wave and usually the QRS
complex

BASIC CRITICAL
VALUES
•
•
•
•

Tachycardia HR > 120bpm
PVC’s - 4 or more in a row
ST Elevation
35
LOOKING AT THE
RHYTHM
• Evaluate the
rhythm strip at
the bottom of
the 12-lead for
the following
• Is the rhythm
regular or
irregular?
• Is there a P
wave before
every QRS
complex
• Are they any
abnormal beats.
36
FINDING THE HEART

• RATE RULER
• COUNTING
