ABSTRACT:
A precordial overlay is configured for precise electrode placement on a patient as part of an electrocardiographic test. It is especially useful by emergency medical personnel who are often called upon to obtain an ECG. The precordial overlay has an elongated band having a first generally rectangular-shaped section, a second generally rectangular-shaped and an intermediate section connecting the first and second sections. Electrodes are slidably mounted in the three sections to allow for limited but quick movement from an approximate chest area location to a precise chest area location for a reliable electrocardiographic test.
