    I want to record ECG signal from a subject whose emotion are elicited by showing him certain video clip. Now for such purpose where should I connect the ECG electrode so that I could get accurate ECG signals,

      If you're looking to gather heart rate and heart rhythm fluctuations while showing these clips then place them exactly where I said to in this video. Arm leads on the arms, leg leads on the legs.
      If you're trying to evoke emotional response and measure that, that is almost an EEG of the brains activity and couldn't be done with a cardiac monitor.
      I hope this helps. 🙏

      Thank you for your prompt response. I'm studying emotional state of person with multiple physiological signals such as ECG, EEG.

      Yes. That is fine just make sure their arms and legs aren't moving to much as the movement will produce artifact on the monitor.

    Hey man used that SCAR on the way to Pearson and passed the medic cognitive 82 questions in less than an hour! Had Slipknot blasting and my Bang in hand on the way up, all while wearing my red t shirt ;)

      Much of test taking is in our minds. How we perceive we know the material, how nervous we make ourselves before testing, the attitude of going into the test whether you're confident or depressed. It always makes me happy to see people who have the belief they'll fail, succeed by far. Always trust what you know.

    Every medical director that I have worked with is perfectly OK with limb leads on the torso. The discrepancy between limb leads on the limbs vs. the torso are inconsequential. If you are responding to a suspected MI, or any cardiac, you're going to do a 12 lead anyway, where you ARE going to place limb leads on the limbs. 3 leads are only meant for routine cardiac monitoring, not for definitive diagnosis of STEMI or ischemia. I have never seen patients in the ED with limb leads on the limbs for 3 leads, It just doesn't happen, at least where I am.

    I had an ekg the other day - female here wearing dress and stockings - she said no don’t remove - she placed leads on belly and hips - didn’t have me remove jewelry and put leads below neck collar bone. Reading came out as slow conduction. Do you think result was most likely poor lead placement?

      Sorry for being slow getting back to you. Thanks for the question. I looked up a bunch of stuff when I saw your comment pop up. I know placing limb leads on the trunk can have amplitude changes and st segment changes and all the others listed in this video. I've never heard of or can find anywhere that poor limb placement like on the trunk can cause slow conduction.
