Vectorelectrocardiography

**Vector electrocardiogram** is a method of assessing the state of heart rhythm based on the use of several measurements of the electrical potential of the heart at different points in the chest. Unlike a conventional electrocardiogram (ECG), which is a recording of electrical signals recorded on the surface of the body, a vector electrocardiograph sends electrical signals

Vector electrocardiography is a method for measuring and analyzing the electrical field of cardiac activity. This method uses ECG sensors (electrodes placed on the patient's body) that record the electrical potentials that occur as the heart beats. These potentials are then transmitted to a computer, where they are converted into fluctuations in the electrical activity of the heart in the form of vectors.

Vector ECG allows you to more accurately measure the electrical activity of the heart than a conventional ECG. It measures not only the amplitude and frequency of heart contractions, but also their direction and energy. This may be useful in diagnosing heart conditions such as arrhythmia or coronary artery disease.

The vector electrocardiography method was developed in the 1970s. It has become popular due to its accuracy and sensitivity in diagnosing heart problems. Vector-ECG is not a replacement for a traditional ECG, but can be used in combination with it to obtain a more complete picture of cardiac activity and diagnose various cardiovascular diseases.
