Standardized EKGs • Time and voltage calibrations are standardized as shown on figure 11-1. Figure 11-1; Guyton & Hall
Heart Rate Calculation • R-R interval = 0.83 sec • Heart rate = (60 sec)/(0.83 sec) = 72 beats/min min beat
Bipolar Limb Leads • Bipolar means that the EKG is recorded from two electrodes on the body. Figure 11-6; Guyton & Hall
Bipolar Limb Leads (cont’d) 0.5 mV 1.2 mV 0.7 mV Figure 11-7; Guyton & Hall
Other EKG Leads • Chest Leads (Precordial Leads) known as V1- V6 are very sensitive to electrical potential changes underneath the electrode. Figure 11-9; Guyton & Hall
