12 Lead ECG Training for Clinical Research Personnel

Fri. 27 Jun, 2025 11:00 am - 3:30 pm

This half-day 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) training course is presented by the NC TraCS Clinical and Translational Research Center (CTRC). The course provides a foundational overview of ECG physiology, guidance on selecting appropriate equipment, the importance of accurate electrode placement, and a discussion of conditions that may cause ECG artifacts.

Instruction includes lecture, hands-on practice, a written exam, and a skills test. To successfully complete the course, participants must attend the full session, pass the exam, and independently and successfully perform at least one 12-lead ECG on a standardized patient.

Please note that this training does not include ECG interpretation, making medical diagnoses, or performing ECGs on individuals under two years of age. Students will practice electrode placement on both a manikin and standardized patients; however, they will not be required to practice on each other. Completion of the course does not result in certification or licensure (e.g., certified ECG technician), but participants who fulfill all requirements will receive a certificate of completion documenting their 12-lead ECG training.

Cost: $90
Location: CTRC (Burnett-Womack Building, 160 Dental Circle, 1st Floor, Conference Room 1045)

Students will have an opportunity to take a 30-minute lunch break (bring your own or visit one of the nearby cafeterias) after the lecture portion is completed.
