2013 ECG 2
Principle of Electrocardiogram.
• Trunk as volume conductor.• Positively charged and
negatively charged areas create electrical field.
• The field changes during spread of impulse.
• Depolarization towards – upward deflection & away – downward deflection.

2013 ECG 3
Einthovens triangle.• When the source of the
electrical field is at the centre of an equilateral triangle, the sum of electrical potential at the three angles is zero.
• Since the heart is roughly at the centre of the triangle and the source moves, 5000 ohm resistance is added to the three leads to get zero potential.

2013 ECG 8
Electrocardiogram.
• Electrocardiogram is the record of the changes in the electrical field in the body produced by the electrical activity of the heart.
• It represents the sequence and strength of the electrical events in the heart.
