INTRODUCTION
- For ST/T wave changes to be consistent with myocardial ischaemia, they have to be in contiguous leads adjacent to a localised segment of the heart
- Find the correlation between lead placement and the corresponding anatomical region of the myocardium
LIMB LEADS (based on Einthoven’s Triangle)
PRECORDIAL LEADS (note that only V1-V6 are normally recorded on a standard 12 lead tracing)
CORRESPONDING CHANGES ON STANDARD 12 LEAD ECG REPORT
