So be ready to perform and transmit 12-lead EKGs for basic life support units as well as those with advanced life support capabilities. Documenting 12-lead EKG in discrete data fields, such as under procedure or vital sign, rather than only in the free-text narrative can also help to ensure better monitoring and improvement initiatives.
