Text: How can we design a circuit in an ECG machine to detect if one of the leads is off or disconnected and display it as an alarm?
Added by Benjamin M.
Step 1
- It uses multiple leads (usually 12) to capture different perspectives of the heart's electrical signals. - Each lead consists of two electrodes that are placed on the patient's body to pick up the electrical signals. Step 2: Detecting if a lead is off or Show more…
