Help y'all,
I have not had any cardiac experience, and keep getting stumped on the cardiac questions in my review for NCLEX.
My question to you is:
Is there a way to remember the positions for the 12 leads in an ECG ?
I get the best help on this site!

Get the color coded EKG book by Tim Curry. You'll NEVER forget!
Thanks Pagandeva,
i'll look into the book when I hit the Amazon.com highway.
In the meantime, is there a site online I can access that give same help?

Can't think right now, but look at the telemetry forums here at allnurses. I heard that they have resources. Personally, I liked looking at the books. Also consider looking at EKG: Plain and Simple or EKG workout (forgot the authors, but I use those books to study from all the time; but they are in my locker at work).

Are new grads expected to know positions for 12 leads? I know where the 4 go for a telemetry monitor...but couldn't tell you on 12.

Maybe this photo will help you.
They would probably show you; it is not hard, and the diagram posted above me is a great demonstation.
