The EKG accessories are products for connecting medical equipment such as monitors, electrocardiographs, dynamic HOLTER recording boxes, and electroencephalograms. EKG supplies is mainly composed of plugs, ekg cables, splitters, lead wires, and connectors. The EKG cable collects and transmits the physiological signals of the human body through the ecg suction electrodes, and is widely used in various medical fields.

What is the Difference between ECG and EKG?

ECG and EKG are two different ways to abbreviate the same thing: electrocardiography, also spelled electrocardiogram. ECG is used in the UK, while EKG is used in the US and other parts of the world.

An electrocardiogram is an electrical recording of the heart's electrical activity, as measured by electrodes attached to the outer surface of the skin. It is a noninvasive diagnostic test that can be performed at home and does not require any special preparation.

The devices that record the ECG and EKG are both called “ECG machines”. Sometimes they may be referred to as an EKG monitor or ECG machine depending on who is speaking about it.

However, there are three leads, five leads, seven leads, and twelve leads for the ECG lead wires, while the EKG line usually has more than 10 leads. The ECG lead wires that match different brands of instruments usually have different plugs. The more leads, the more waveforms, so the judgment of the condition will be more comprehensive.
