Outline
Nursing Points
General
- 12 Lead EKG: V1-V6
- Anterior-septal-lateral wall leads
- Placement
- (From the right to left side of heart) -> V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6
- Electrical current through heart
- First travels through left bundle (V5, V6)
- Small Q wave normal (electrical current traveling away from +)
- Across anterior wall towards V4, V3, V2, V1
- Appearance of R wave in V1, V2, V3 = anterior septal wall exists
- No R wave = infarcted (no ST elevation) or infarcting (ST elevation)
- First travels through left bundle (V5, V6)
