Abstract
In an electrocardiographic system there is a multielement electrode at two skin locations for providing an ECG signal of negligible magnitude between elements because of the close spacing while the pair of elements are sufficiently separated so that the motion of one element is at least partially independent of the motion of the other. Parallel ECG signals are obtained from different elements of two multielement electrodes. The difference between the signals is detected by logical circuitry to produce a signal indicating baseline shift.
