How should I place the limb leeds of EKG on a patient with above-knee amputated leg ?

Question:

I would be grateful to anyone who help me to find some reliable sources on the internet that tackle the special forms of ECG lead placements in patient with special conditions, e.g., an amputed leg or arm !!

Answers:
This is might be not reliable source you looking for, but it's the only site i found had picture on it.

1. Red = right anterior shoulder or arm
2. Yellow = Left anterior shoulder or arm
3. Black = right thigh / higher than patela / amputation site
4. Green = left thigh. / higher than patela / amputation site.

Or why don't you use other method ?
Unipolar limbs lead, using electrodes : put one on left shoulder, one at right shoulder, one at left lower abdomen, a bit upper SIAS (anterior superior iliac spine) . This method work very well in every people, even tetra amputation person.

you'll want to place one on the chest, the rib cage, and the the thigh

above the amputation site..if its and above knee amputation then you put it on the thigh and same with an arm amputation
