Which lead is placed on the left leg for limb lead placement in the described setup?

Which lead is placed on the left leg for limb lead placement in the described setup?

• A. Lead Snow
• B. Lead Fire
• C. Lead Grass
• D. Lead Smoke

Answer: (B)

In limb lead placement, a common mnemonic assigns four names to the limb electrodes: Snow, Smoke, Grass, and Fire. In the setup described, the left leg electrode is designated as Fire, so the lead placed on the left leg is Fire. The other names correspond to the other limbs (placed on the remaining limbs per the mnemonic), which is why Fire is the one placed on the left leg.
