Electrocardiogram 12-lead ECG EKG: A combination of electrodes that form an imaginary line in the body along which the electrical signals are measured. In fact, a 12 lead electrocardiograph usually only uses 10 wires/ electrodes-this leads me to the following article.
Note: We seldom discuss 12-lead even though it performs such an important task in so many modern clinical settings-okay, so you knew you use 10 wires-while researching this article I came across an interesting article: 12-lead ST-segment monitoring vs. single-lead maximum ST-segment monitoring for detecting ongoing ischemia in patients with unstable coronary syndromes, by BJ Drew, et al http://ajcc.aacnjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/7/5/355 An interesting refresher, give it a try.
