ECG recording is divided into 12 leads, of which 6 are chest leads and 6 are limb leads. By recording these leads, we can get the electrical signals at different positions of the heart, so as to judge whether the function of the heart is normal or not.
The operation steps of ECG are as follows:
1. The patient needs to take off his shirt and show his chest.
2. The doctor will put the conductance on the patient's chest and limbs.
The patient needs to keep quiet and don't talk or move.
4. ECG will record the electrical signal of the heart, and the recording time usually ranges from a few seconds to several minutes.
