AAMI/AHA standards electrodes placement (12 leads);

Pansw leadwires are made to meet either IEC or AAMI/AHA color-coding standards.

Options of detachable leadwire sets include clip or snap connectors, choice of lengths, DIN style or traditional style connector, and individually replaced or grouped sets are available. The product line includes ECG cables that are shielded, protected against defibrillation and electrosurgery, can be used for respiration monitoring
