ECG, arrhythmia, and ST segment
12-lead monitoring
Standard 12-lead monitoring is only available when
you use a 6-wire lead set and a 4-wire lead set. 12-
lead monitoring using a 10-wire lead set is a locked
option that must be purchased separately. Place
the chest electrodes in positions 1 through 6 as
shown on page 210.
TruST 12-lead monitoring offers real-time
assessment of ST segment deviations with only six
electrodes. TruST uses the conventional 6-lead
standard electrode placement (see page 209),
measuring 8 leads and interpolating 4 chest leads.
TruST is available for adult and pediatric patients,
but not for neonatal patients.
You can view all ECG waveforms, including TruST,
on the Show all page (see page 215). For
information on how to activate TruST, see
page 234.
