1. An emergency cardiac and electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode placement device, the device comprising:
a body comprising a plurality of extension members, wherein the body comprises a base layer composed of a flexible material, an adhesive layer composed of a flexible material, and a backing layer attached to an adhesive surface of the adhesive layer;
a plurality of electrodes, each of the plurality of electrodes comprising a connection stud, a contact pad interface and a contact pad;
a plurality of cables;
a cable management module comprising an upper cover, a lower cover, an upper guide piece with a first plurality of channels on a first horizontal plane, and a lower guide piece with a second plurality of channels on a second horizontal plane, wherein the lower guide piece is placed over the lower cover, the upper guide piece is placed over the lower guide piece, the upper cover is placed over the upper guide piece; and
an electrode connector connected to each of the plurality of cables through the cable management module;
wherein each cable of the plurality of cables is positioned between the base layer and the adhesive layer, and connected to a corresponding electrode of the plurality of electrodes and the electrode connector;
wherein each of the plurality of extension members extend outward from a center of the body for proper placement of the plurality of electrodes on a patient;
