ABSTRACT:
An electrode harness for an electrocardiograph apparatus has a hollow tube for containing and housing the individual lead wires for each electrode and a flexible stylet which when bent, into a desired shape, will maintain that shape, until reshaped. The individual electrodes are slidably adjustable about the exterior of the hollow tube to enhance precise positioning of the electrodes to thereby maximize the proper recording of electro-cardiac information from the patient. All of the individual lead wires are bundled together and exit from the hollow tube at a single location. In addition, the electrical plug for the harness is uniquely configured so that it can only be plugged into the corresponding female receptacle of the electrocardiograph recording machine in the proper manner. The harness is also provided with a pair of straps which are adapted to be placed beneath the right shoulder and the left hip of the patient. The weight of the tube and/or stylet also provides a downward bias of the harness towards the skin surface of the patient to maximize electrical contact between electrodes and patient.
