Surface ECG Mapping
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aims to confirm a scientific concept that superficially placed electrocardiogram (ECG) leads may be compared to one another to help determine positioning. If proven to be effective, this could offer a more non-invasive means of positioning using superficial ECG tracings.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) Mapping Participants will have 10 superficial electrode-patches placed on their chest in two vertical columns of 5 electrode-patches. The channels V1-V5 will be connected to one of the columns. The channel V6 will be connected to each of the electrode-patches in the second column ad recordings will be taken for approximately 2 minutes on each electrode-patch. ECG readings will be recorded. |
Device: Electrocardiogram
An electrocardiogram measures the electrical activity of the heartbeat. This "intervention" will be used on healthy adult volunteers whom are part of the staff at the institution.
