Abstract
A system and method for measuring the impedance of one or more of a plurality of leads in an electrocardiogram (ECG) are disclosed. These may include applying a plurality of leads to a patient's body, applying a plurality impedance pads to the patient's body, providing a burst pulse from the catheter electrode of the ECG, measuring impedance signals across ones of the plurality of impedance pads and the plurality of leads, and determining the impedance for one or more leads from the measured impedance signals. The plurality of impedance pads may define a first axis from the right side of the patient's chest to the left side of the patient's chest, a second axis from the upper chest area of the patient to the lower abdomen area of the patient, and a third axis from the center of the patient's back to the center of the patient's chest.
