(PharmaNewsWire.Com, December 18, 2017 ) ECG Cables and ECG Lead wires are used for Electrocardiography. It records the electrical activity of heart with the help of electrodes placed on the skin. The electrodes function by detecting the electrical activity of heart muscle’s electro-physiologic patterns.In a normally found Electrocardiograph, there are 12-lead ECG’s and 10 electrodes which are placed on the patient’s on the surface of their chest and on their limbs.
The ECG of a person can be used to decode properties of their heart such as presence of any damage to heart muscles, size and position of heart chambers, rhythm and rate of heart beats and the effect of cardiac drugs if any. Medically, an ECG is recorded if there are indications such as seizures, fainting cardiac murmur, heart attack, pain in the chest and shortness of breath.
