Leads V3 & V4 view
Leads V1 & V2 view
Leads 2,3, & aVF view
Leads 1, aVL, V5, V6 view
= Anterior
= Septal
= Inferior
= Lateral
Leads V3 and V4 look at what part of the heart?
L-Anteriorwall (LAD & LMCA blocks)
Systematic approach
- rate, 2. rhythm, 3. P waves, 4. PRI, 5. QRS
Leads V1 and V2 look at what part of the heart?
Septal (blockages from LAD commonly)
Leads 1, aVL, V5, V6 look at what part of heart:
L-Lateral (low view : views LCX & LAD)
Unipolar Limb Leads:
aVR:
aVL:
aVF:
= Augmented by the cardiac monitor
= Right Arm positive (inferior)
= Left Arm positive (lateral )
= Left Leg positive (inferior)
V8 & V9 STEMI criteria:
0.5mm or greater
Leads V1 and V2 look at what part of the heart?
Septal (blockages from LAD commonly)
Leads 1, aVL, V5, V6 look at what part of heart:
L-Lateral (low view : views LCX & LAD)
ECG Lead coronary arteries) Anterior
(LAD) Left Anterior Descending
Leads II, III and aVF look at what part of the heart?
Inferior wall (most common blockacke(RCA)
ECG Lead coronary arteries) Inferior
(RCA) Right Coronary Artery
A Lateral Wall high view:
B Left Lateral low view:
C Inferior wall view:
D Septal wall view:
E L-Anterior view:
A= Lead I & aVL= LA
B= Lead 1, aVL, V5 & V6: views LCX & LAD
C= 2,3,aVF: LL most common block(RCA) Lots of blockages/infarcs
D= V1 & V2: Along sternal borders blockages from LAD commonly
E= V3 & V4: left anterior wall : LAD & LMCA blocks
ECG Lead coronary arteries) Posterior
(RCA) Right Coronary Artery &/or (LCX)
3 I’S of cardiac) ST depression, Hyperacute or flipped T Wave:
Ischemia
3 I’S of cardiac) ST Elevation:
Injury
3 I’S of cardiac) Pathologic Q
Infarction
ECG Lead coronary arteries) Right

Coronary) Right coronary artery (RCA) supplies:
Right Coronary arteries’ 2 major branches:
= part R-atrium & ventricle, upper part conduction system
= posterior descending artery & marginal artery
