Updated Aero Camino Goleta, CA Ph (805) Fax (805) #AH-109: 3-, 6-, and 12-Lead ECG 12-Lead ECG Recording (with chest leads sequential in "Precordial" waveform) Overview An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a graphic recording of the changes occurring in the electrical potentials between different sites on the skin (leads) as a result of cardiac activity. Depolarization of the cardiac cells is the central electrical event of the heart. This occurs when the cardiac cells, which are electrically polarized, lose their internal negativity. Depolarization is distributed from cell to cell, producing a wave of depolarization that can be transmitted across the entire heart. This wave represents a flow of electricity and it can be detected by electrodes placed on the surface of the body. Once depolarization is complete, the file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (1 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
2 cardiac cells are able to restore their resting polarity through a process called repolarization. This flow of electricity can also be sensed by recording electrodes. Obtaining accurate data from an electrocardiogram depends partially on the specific electrode placement and site preparation. One of the most important considerations in site preparation is reducing the amount of impedance between the electrode and the skin's surface. Impedance, which is essentially the same as resistance, is the measure of opposition to the current in an electrical circuit. High impedance can be caused by excess dry skin, long hair, or the presence of scar tissue, and has the detrimental effect of adding noise to the signal of interest. Proper skin preparation must take place so that the least amount of impedance is present and optimal skin contact is obtained. Electrode gel can then be applied to the electrode in order to further increase its performance. Abrasive skin prepping gel and/or BIOPAC's ELPAD can be rubbed on the electrode placement area to lightly abrade the skin in order to increase conductivity between it and the electrode. This gently removes dry, non-conductive skin cells which might hinder the efficiency of the electrode signal. Once an acceptable electrode set-up is achieved, a check can be made to determine the resistance by hooking up pairs of electrodes to an electrode tester. This will directly determine the resistance between the two selected electrodes. Impedance levels as low as 1 to 2 Killiohms can be maintained with proper skin preparation, however 5 to 10 Killiohms is acceptable. Note: Impedance levels will improve over time as the electrode conductivity gel begins to adhere better between the skin and electrode. One common placement of the electrodes is based on Einthoven's triangle, which is a theoretical triangle drawn around the area of the heart. Each apex of the triangle represents where the fluids around the heart connect electrically with the limbs. Typically, separate amplifiers would be placed at each of the three points of the triangle, and data from Leads I, II, and III would be acquired. However, Einthoven's law states that if the values for any two points of the triangle are known, the third can be computed. In this note, data will be collected from Leads I and II, with the difference of these two channels being equal to Lead III. Lead III can be calculated either on-line using a Calculation > Math channel or after the data has been acquired using the Transform > Waveform math option. Either method will generate a standard 3-Lead ECG: file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (2 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
3 3-lead ECG To obtain accurate 3-lead ECG data using the MP100 or MP150 data acquisition system, set all of the hardware and software parameters as stated below. These have proven to be optimal for ECG testing, although many of the settings can be customized to account for individual testing preferences. 6-lead ECG To obtain a 6-lead ECG you need to calculate three augmented leads in addition to Leads I, II, and III. These three new leads are typically noted as avr, avl, and avf, and are functions of Leads I, II, and III. They can be derived through calculation expression channels. For more information on setting up these augmented leads, see Option # 1 later in this application note. 12-Lead ECG To obtain a 12-lead ECG you need to calculate six precordial (chest) leads in addition to Leads I, II, and III and the three augmented leads. For more information on setting up a 12- lead ECG, see Option # 2 later in this application note. Equipment For continuous 12-lead ECG, see Application Note #AH-206 MP100 or MP150 data acquisition system Three (3) ECG100C amplifier modules file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (3 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
4 One (1) TSD155C Multi-lead ECG Cable Ten (10) EL503 electrodes per subject GEL100 Electrode Gel Hardware Setup 1. Snap the three ECG100C modules to the UIM100C. 2. Set the first (closest to the UIM100C) ECG100C amplifier to channel 1 on top. 3. Set the second ECG100C amplifier to channel 2 on top 4. Set the third ECG100C amplifier to channel 3 on top. 5. Set the remaining switches on all three ECG100C amplifiers as follows: Gain: 500 Mode: Norm 35 Hz LPN: ON HP: 0.5 Hz (recommended for stable baseline; 0.05 Hz acceptable) 6. Plug the TSD155C into the front panels of the ECG100C as follows. Lead I - first module (closest to UIM100C) Lead II - second module Chest - third module Electrode connections 1. Attach the electrodes as shown below. a. Abrade each electrode site. It is a good idea to abrade the skin before electrode placement to decrease the amount of impedance between the electrode and the skin's surface. file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (4 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
5 b. Apply a small amount of electrode gel (GEL100) at each electrode site. A drop of electrode gel will further improve electrode detection. c. Apply 10 electrodes to the Subject.

Red LL left leg Black LA left arm Brown C precordial White RA right arm Green RL right leg (ground) Position the electrode cables so they do not pull on the electrodes. Clip the electrode cable clip (where the cable meets the three individual colored wires) to a convenient location (such as Subject s clothes) to relieve cable strain. Software Setup 1. Under Set up Channels, set analog channels A1 and A2 to acquire and plot data. Label them as Lead I and Lead II, respectively (see dialog below). Analog channel setup for 3-Lead ECG derived from 2 analog inputs (A1 and A2) 2. Under Set up Channels, click on Calc and set calculation channel CO to acquire and plot data. Select Math from the calculation pull-down menu and label it "Lead III." Set the Source and Operand options for "A2 (Lead II) - A1 (Lead I)." Click OK and l(see diagram below). file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (6 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
7 Lead III set-up as a Math : Calculation channel (C0) derived from the difference between Leads I and II (A1 and A2, respectively) 3. Under Set up Acquisition, choose "Record and Append to Disk" and set the sampling rate to 250 Hz with an acquisition length of 10 seconds. In Append mode, when the acquisition is stopped and then re-started, data will be added onto the previous data. A marker will automatically be inserted with a time stamp to indicate the new segment start time. You can relabel the marker at any time. Procedure 1. Power up the MP unit and launch the AcqKnowledge software. 2. Click on the "Start" button in the software. Waveforms may take several seconds to settle properly. 3. Wait for the acquisition to stop (set for 10 seconds) or click on the "Stop" button in the software when you have acquired the desired amount of data. file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (7 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
8 4. Modify the vertical scale to the desired values and perform the "Autoscale waveforms" function from the Display menu. 5. With AcqKnowledge, there are a number of different ways to measure the beats per minute (BPM) and amplitude of each wave. One preferred method is to select the channel you want to calculate rate information from and select Transform > Find Rate from the pull-down menus. This will create a new channel which records the BPM of the selected waveform (see diagram below). Sample waveform of 3-lead ECG Option # 1: 6-Lead ECG In order to acquire 6-lead ECG information, you will need to calculate the three augmented leads, also termed the Goldberger leads. These leads are derived from advanced vector-cardiography based on the three standard leads (Leads I, II, and III). No additional electrodes or leads are required to obtain the augmented leads as they are functions of the three standard leads and can be calculated online or postacquisition with the following formulas: avr = - (Lead I + Lead II) / 2 avl = (Lead I - Lead III) / 2 file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (8 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
9 avf = (Lead II + Lead III) / 2 where Lead I correlates to software channel A1, Lead II correlate to software channels A2, and Lead III correlates to software channel C0 1. Click on MP > Setup Channels and set three additional Calculation channels to acquire, plot and show values. 2. Set each new calculation channel to the Equation Generator function and enter a formula for avr, avl, or avf in each Equation Generator dialog. 3. Click OK to close out of the dialog and proceed with the recoding. Option # 2: 12-Lead ECG In some remote cases 6-lead ECG does not give enough information about the electrical activity of the heart. It is possible to add six more leads for a total of 12 leads, hence the title 12-Lead ECG. The six new leads, called precordial leads, or chest leads, are arranged across the chest in a horizontal plane and record electrical flows moving anteriorly and posteriorly. To create the six precordial leads, each chest electrode is positive, and the whole body is used as the common ground. The six positive electrodes, creating the precordial leads V1 through V6 are positioned as shown in the diagram above and rotated through consecutive recording segments to provide 12-lead ECG data. For continuous 12-lead ECG, see Application Note #AH-206 Note The optimum setup is Subject relaxed and in a supine position. You will record six 10-second segments, for a total recording of 60 seconds. You will record Lead I, Lead II and a Precordial (chest) lead in six positions (V1 through V6). In addition, Lead III and the "Augmented leads" (avr, avl, avf) will be calculated. Each chest electrode is positive and the whole body is used as the common ground. Wait at least 30 seconds after moving the precordial lead for each segment before clicking on "Start." A marker will be inserted each time you click "Start" and you can label markers after recording. You should not see excessive EMG artifact or baseline drift; if you do, check connections and repeat the segment. file:///c /Documents%20and%20Settings/JocelynKremer/Desktop/AppNotes/app109ECG/ecglead.html (9 of 12)2/27/ :23:24 AM
10 1. Segment 1: Precordial V1 a. Confirm that the chest lead is still securely clipped to Subject at position V1. b. Click on the Start button. Subject must maintain the same position for all segments. c. After 10 seconds, click on the Stop button. d. Review the data on the screen. You should not see excessive EMG artifact or baseline drift; if you do, check connections and repeat the segment. 2. Segment 2: Precordial V2 a. Unclip the chest lead from position V1 and clip it to position V2. b. Wait 30 seconds and then click on Start. Subject must maintain the same position for all segments. c. After 10 seconds, click on Stop. 3. Segment 3: Precordial V3 a. Unclip the chest lead from position V2 and clip it to position V3. b. Wait 30 seconds and then click on Start. Subject must maintain the same position for all segments. c. After 10 seconds, click on Stop. 4. Segment 4: Precordial V4 a. Unclip the chest lead from position V3 and clip it to position V4. b. Wait 30 seconds and then click on Start. Subject must maintain the same position for all segments. c. After 10 seconds, click on Stop. 5. Segment 5: Precordial V5 a. Unclip the chest lead from position V4 and clip it to position V5. b. Wait 30 seconds and then click on Start. Subject must maintain the same position for all segments. c.
