The ST Map is a new method to assess acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Although variations of the ST Map do exist, Philips Healthcare has been the first to integrate its approach into clinical practice. This study assessed student perception of the...

Introduction
This study investigates how a particular incorrect electrode configuration affects the 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG).

Methods
A correct and an incorrect 12-lead ECG were extracted from a 192-lead BSPM. This was done for 232 BSPMs... Read More about The effects of electrode misplacement on clinicians’ interpretation of the standard 12-lead electrocardiogram.
