Quick q regarding EKG placement intraop, I never fully understood and was wondering if you can help me.
I know green/white is right, red/black on left. But I heard brown (V) should go to L midaxillary?? but most ppl put it in center of the chest??
And what's the rationale of saying green can be put anywhere? what does it mean that it's a 'ground lead'?, can it really be placed anywhere on the body or anywhere on right side only?
Thanks so much!
