Abstract: Described is a detection device (1) for detecting cardiac electrical signals, wearable by a patient, comprising a right lower electrode (11) and a left lower electrode (12), for detecting cardiac electrical potentials, positioned in alignment with each other on a first horizontal axis (x?), spaced apart from each other by a first distance (d1); a right upper electrode (13) and a left upper electrode (14), for detecting cardiac electrical potentials, positioned above said lower electrodes (11, 12), and being aligned with each other on a second horizontal axis (x?), parallel to said first horizontal axis (x?), and spaced from each other by a second distance (d2), greater than or equal to said first distance (d1); and a logic control unit (U), electrically connected to said electrodes (11, 12, 13, 14), wherein said logic control unit (U) is configured to receive a first bipolar lead (DI?), detected between said left upper electrode (14) and said right upper electrode (13); a second bipolar lead (DII?), detected
