Anteroseptal leads

17
Q

V3 and V4 are the

A

Anteroapical leads

18
Q

Leads V5 and V6 are the

A

Anterolateral leads

19
Q

The lateral leads include

A

1, aVL, V5 and V6 and tell us about the left circumflex supply

20
Q

The inferior leads include

A

II, III, and aVF and tell us about the right coronary artery

21
Q

What are the anterior leads?

A

V1-V4 and they tell us about the left anterior descending artery

22
Q

Why might a left axis deviation occur?

A

Normal variation due to diaphragm elevation (pregnancy)
Left ventricular enlargement
Inferior MIA
Right sided pneumothorax

23
Q

Why might a right axis deviation occur?

A

Normal variation in children, right ventricular enlargement, lateral myocardial infarction, left sided tension pneumothorax
