ECG/Respiration
The ECG cable is a modular cable consisting of two distinct
parts:
• The Trunk: A single cable connecting to the system at one
end, providing a cable splitter device at the other end (see
Figure 3-9).
• The triple color-coded electrode cable: To be inserted in
the splitter device. Each electrode cable hooks up to the
appropriate stick-on electrode by a color-coded clip type
connector.
The color-coding of the electrodes follows one of two standards
that are common in different parts of the world. The cable splitter
device illustrates the color codes, names, and body locations for
the two standard color codes (see Figure 3-9).
