The idea
Each group of leads looks at a different area of the heart.
In practice
Leads two, three and aVF view the inferior surface; leads one, aVL, V five and V six view the lateral wall; V one and V two view the septum; V three and V four view the anterior wall.
Where people slip
Misplaced electrodes change these views, which is why placement matters.
