ECGs - How they work

A simple explanation of how ECGs, or electrocardiographs, are captured. I've tried to make it easy to understand, but if you have any questions please chuck them in the comments below.
This is part 1 of a forthcoming series - part 2 will explain how to read an ECG.

    Can you please explain how electricity flows from the skin to electrodes (ECG) to make electrons move in the wire? Is it the electric field or some electrons jump from the skin surface move into the wire?

    You got the entire sign convention of the current wrong.

  • @Soneoak
    @Soneoak10 күн бұрын

    Current is wrong, it’s a potential difference, when the potential change crosses the electrical midpoint between both electrodes, the potential difference decreases. The rate of change of potential is the same per the depolarisation speed, the r complex is completely wrong in your description. When it is half polarised, the potential difference it’s at maximum, when it is fully polarised, the potential difference is again 0.
