A 5-wire lead set can monitor seven ECG vectors (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, and V) simultane-
ously. The recommended 5-wire lead placement is as follows:
5-wire lead placement (AHA)
5-wire lead placement (IEC)
■ Place the RA (white) electrode under the
patient’s right clavicle, at the mid-
clavicular line within the rib cage frame.
■ Place the LA (black) electrode under the
patient’s left clavicle, at the mid-clavicular
line within the rib cage frame.
■ Place the LL (red) electrode on the
patient’s lower left abdomen within the
rib cage frame.
■ Place the RL (green) electrode on the
patient’s lower right abdomen within the
rib cage frame.
■ Place the V (brown) electrode in the V-
lead position as shown in the figure or
decided by the clinician.
■ Place the R (red) electrode under the
patient’s right clavicle, at the mid-
clavicular line within the rib cage frame.
■ Place the L (yellow) electrode under the
patient’s left clavicle, at the mid-clavicular
line within the rib cage frame.
■ Place the F (green) electrode on the
patient’s lower left abdomen within the
rib cage frame.
■ Place the N (black) electrode on the
patient’s lower right abdomen within the
rib cage frame.
■ Place the C (white) electrode in the C-lead
position as shown in the figure or
decided by the clinician.
