    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 Pharmacology
    In 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.
