Item How to Take a Diagnostic 12-lead ECG in a Male(2024) Ramirez, Dana, Osteopathic Medical Student; Hapenciuc, Gabriel, Osteopathic Medical Student; Shillinglaw, Andrew, Osteopathic Medical Student; Loomis, Mario, Associate Professor Clinical Anatomy; Alvarez, Diego F, Professor Physiology and PharmacologyIn this episode of the Loomis-Alvarez Medical Video Series, we present the technique for mastering 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) Electrode Placement in male subjects. Within the field of cardiology, precision in electrode placement is paramount for capturing high-fidelity ECG readings. Our immersive laboratory demonstration mirrors a real-world scenario, equipping medical students with the practical expertise needed to confidently position electrodes for optimal signal acquisition. Embark on this comprehensive journey through each essential step, beginning with meticulous skin preparation to ensure secure electrode adhesion and seamless signal transmission. Navigate the intricacies of limb lead placement, strategically positioning electrodes on the arms and legs (RA, LA, RL, LL) to capture electrical activity accurately. Moreover, unlocks the secrets of chest lead placement, utilizing precise anatomical landmarks to guide the placement of electrodes (V1-V6) across the chest region. By immersing yourself in this practical activity, you will gain invaluable insights and hands-on experience vital for mastering the art of 12-lead ECG electrode placement.Item Taking the ECG in the Clinical Medicine student laboratory-female version(2024) Lesage, Kayla, Osteopathic Medical Student; Mackler, Matt, Osteopathic Medical Student; Brown, Sabrina, Osteopathic Medical Student; Stitle, Kyle, Osteopathic Medical Student; Loomis, Mario, Associate Professor Clinical Anatomy; Alvarez, Diego F, Professor Physiology and PharmacologyIn this episode of the Loomis-Alvarez Medical Video Series, we present a peer-to-peer demonstration of the 6-lead and the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode placement in a female student. For a physician, mastering the skill of accurate electrode placement is crucial for obtaining high-quality ECGs. This peer-to-peer tutorial of a hands-on laboratory activity is designed to provide medical students with a practical understanding of the correct electrode placement for a standard 12-lead ECG in a female patient. It is important to master the skills while we provide a safe learning environment in the classroom for everyone. You will identify all the basic steps from skin preparation, for optimal electrode adhesion and signal transmission, to limb lead placement (positioning of the RA, LA, RL, and LL electrodes on the arms and legs), and chest lead placement (anatomical landmarks for placing electrodes V1-V6 on the chest) while ensuring that no unnecessary exposure of body parts occurs.Item Taking the ECG in the Clinical Medicine student laboratory-male version(2024) Stitle, Kyle, Osteopathic Medical Student; Lesage, Kayla, Osteopathic Medical Student; Brown, Sabrina, Osteopathic Medical Student; Mackler, Matt, Osteopathic Medical Student; Loomis, Mario, Associate Professor Clinical Anatomy; Alvarez, Diego, Professor Physiology and PharmacologyIn this episode of the Loomis-Alvarez Medical Video Series, we present a peer-to-peer demonstration of the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode placement in a male student.
