  • A simple explanation of how ECGs, or electrocardiographs, are captured. I've tried to make it easy to understand, but if you have any questions please chuck them in the comments below.
    This is part 1 of a forthcoming series - part 2 will explain how to read an ECG.

    Your channel is the best medicine content channel on UA-cam. Truly appreciate all the effort that goes behind every video and building the 3D models on your website!!
    You are honestly a great teacher Ruben!!
    So blessed to have you :)

    Can you please explain how electricity flows from the skin to electrodes (ECG) to make electrons move in the wire? Is it the electric field or some electrons jump from the skin surface move into the wire?

    What is inside the silver probe? Just a kind of flat surface metal, or a kind of coil forming an inductor/magnetic antenna?

    I mean, are these machines reading mV signals??!
    How does the machine pick up such small electrical signals and not pick up noise from say.... power outlets in the doctor office?!

    You got the entire sign convention of the current wrong.

  • @Soneoak
    @Soneoak 11 днів тому

    Current is wrong, it’s a potential difference, when the potential change crosses the electrical midpoint between both electrodes, the potential difference decreases. The rate of change of potential is the same per the depolarisation speed, the r complex is completely wrong in your description.
    When it is half polarised, the potential difference it’s at maximum, when it is fully polarised, the potential difference is again 0.
