Abstract
Adaptability in precordial lead placement is one of the sources of electrocardiography inaccuracy. The present experimental study aimed to investigate the modified precordial lead ECG SafOne on electrocardiography recordings. Fourteen subjects were selected using purposive sampling. All the artefacts that emerged in the ECG recording results from the subjects using both the modified precordial lead ECG SafOne and precordial lead standard ECG were measured and identified. Data were analysed using a t test to examine the difference in the artefacts from all ECG recordings. The electrocardiography recordings of males aged 21–25 years using modified precordial lead ECG SafOne showed that out of 168 precordial leads from 14 subjects, two indicated artefact images in lead II (1.19%) and three in lead III (1.79%). The statistical test showed no significant difference in terms of artefacts that emerged in the electrocardiography recording results from both standard ECG and modified precordial lead ECG SafOne (p = 0.096). The modified precordial lead ECG SafOne showed no significant effect on ECG recordings related to artefacts. Additionally, the precordial lead ECG SafOne had no substantial difference in the presence of artefacts compared to the standard ECG. Therefore, ECG SafOne was usable as an ECG precordial lead for electrocardiography recording.
