DANGER:

The example above does not include any isolation between the PC, its Mains protective earth and the heart electrodes. There are a number of fault conditions such as broken protective earth condtur that could then put a significan leakage current onto the heart electrodes, this could prove fatal.

I refer you to the note on this page https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12650

and have a read of https://talema.com/medical-electrical-equipment-safety-regulation/

I strongly suggest the article needs an urgent rewrite.

It's amazing to think we have access to very capable medical sensing devices at an affordable cost. Very informative blog, by the way.

Nice blog. I think I used the same ECG card in my Heart Reactor: [mention:526e36ca6866461fb258a71d5c7300a9:f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07]
