What is Synthesized ECG?

The most common ECG exam is the standard 12-lead ECG. It is simple to measure, has a low burden on the body, and observing the heart from these 12 directions provides a lot of information with a wide range of clinical applications. However, some areas, especially pathological changes in the right ventricle and the posterior wall, cannot be observed from the 12-lead ECG.

Synthesized 18-lead ECG uses the 12-lead ECG waveforms to mathematically derive the waveforms of the right chest leads (V3R, V4R, V5R) and back leads (V7, V8, V9). The measurement procedure is the same as the standard 12-lead ECG, but more information can be obtained. 18-lead synthesized ECG is expected to be useful in detecting right side and posterior infarction.

Principle of Synthesized Waveforms

Instantaneous cardioelectricvectors are continuously measured from the standard 12-lead ECG data, and the ECG for the right leads (V3R, V4R and V5R) and back leads (V7, V8 and V9) is synthesized from this data.

The example on the left shows actually measured waveforms and synthesized waveforms. Other data also has good correlation with actually measured ECG. This suggests that we can obtain useful information which corresponds to the condition of the heart.
