Description
Based on the amazing model “anatomically accurate heart”, I added arrows to visualize where the leads of an ECG go through the heart.
When coming into first contact with ECGs, I had a hard time with just how the different leads work. To hopefully make it easier for others, I created this model, adding labeled arrows to indicate where and at which angle they go through the heart. Perfect for teachers or students in any healthcare-related field.
Note: despite working together with our teacher for best results, this is just a visualization and I do not claim perfect accuracy on the angles.
Printing: I recommend silcing it in half, printing it in two parts and them glueing them together.
You can print the arrows in different colors for better visibility, I simply marked the names of the lead with a sharpie.
All that being said, Happy printing!
