Ecg Electrode

An ECG electrode is a small, adhesive device used in electrocardiography (ECG) to detect electrical activity in the heart. These electrodes are placed on the skin, typically on the chest, arms, or legs, and help capture the heart’s electrical signals, which are then recorded and displayed on an ECG machine. This helps healthcare professionals monitor heart function, diagnose conditions like arrhythmias, and assess overall heart health.

What is an ECG Electrode?

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a quick and simple test used to assess heart function. During the procedure, small adhesive electrodes are placed on specific areas of the chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes are connected to the ECG machine by lead wires, which capture the electrical signals generated by the heart. The machine records, measures, and prints out...
