A Practical Guide to Electrode Placement for Resting ECG Recording

We have published a series of practical video tutorials dedicated to the correct placement of ECG electrodes.
Accurate electrode positioning is essential for obtaining a reliable electrocardiogram. Even minor misplacement can affect waveforms and complicate interpretation — which is especially critical for diagnostic accuracy.
The series includes three videos, each addressing a specific clinical aspect:
- Placement of reusable electrodes for resting 12-lead ECG
- Resting ECG recording using disposable electrodes
- Proximal limb electrode placement when standard positioning is not feasible
