Electrocardiography is a non-invasive procedure for recording electrical changes in the heart. ECG paper is traditionally divided into 1 mm squares. Vertically, ten blocks usually correspond to 1 mV, and on the horizontal axis, the paper speed is usually 25 mm/s, so one block is 0.04s (or 40ms). Through the simulated virtual activity, user can identify whether the heart rhythm is regular or irregular from the ECG waveform produced.

Procedure |
● Click and drag the wires from the ECG machine to the leads in the body in such a way that all the leads are correctly connected to the machine. (Colours of the leads should match with the dots.) ● After the successful connection, a button 'Take ECG' will be enabled. ● The ECG will plot for all the leads separately. ● Click 'Zoom in' and 'zoom out' button for changing the view and reset button to reset the connection. |
