Study Notes

EKG Heart Views and Leads

  • Leads II, III, and aVF monitor the inferior wall of the left ventricle.
  • Leads V1 and V2 are responsible for visualizing the septal wall.
  • Leads V3 and V4 provide views of the anterior wall of the left ventricle.
  • Leads I, aVL, V5, and V6 focus on the lateral wall of the left ventricle.

Lead Associations

  • The inferior wall of the heart is represented by leads II, III, and aVF.
  • The septal wall is observed through leads V1 and V2.
  • The anterior wall is seen in leads V3 and V4.
  • The lateral wall can be measured via leads I, aVL, V5, and V6.

Coronary Artery Supply

  • The right coronary marginal branch is reflected in leads II, III, and aVF.
  • The left coronary septal branch corresponds with leads V1 and V2.
  • The left anterior descending artery is represented in leads V3 and V4.
  • The left circumflex artery can be seen through leads I, aVL, V5, and V6.

Main Artery and Branch Relations

  • Leads II, III, and aVF visualize the right coronary artery and its marginal branch.
  • Leads V1 and V2 connect to the left coronary artery's septal branch.
  • Leads V3 and V4 associate with the left coronary artery and its anterior descending portion.
  • Leads I, aVL, V5, and V6 are tied to the left coronary artery's circumflex branch.
