  2. Automated ECG interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_ECG_interpretation

    Automated ECG interpretation is the use of artificial intelligence and pattern recognition software and knowledge bases to carry out automatically the interpretation, test reporting, and computer-aided diagnosis of electrocardiogram tracings obtained usually from a patient.

  3. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    Electrocardiography is the process of producing an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG [a]), a recording of the heart's electrical activity through repeated cardiac cycles. [4] It is an electrogram of the heart which is a graph of voltage versus time of the electrical activity of the heart [ 5 ] using electrodes placed on the skin.

  4. QRS complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRS_complex

    Schematic representation of a normal sinus rhythm ECG wave. Diagram showing how the polarity of the QRS complex in leads I, II, and III can be used to estimate the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane. The QRS complex is the combination of three of the graphical deflections seen on a typical electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). It is usually ...

    P=P wave, PR=PR interval, QRS=QRS complex, QT=QT interval, ST=ST segment, T=T wave Wiggers with jugular venous waveform Wiggers diagram with mechanical (echo), electrical (ECG), and aortic pressure (catheter) waveforms, together with an in-ear dynamic pressure waveform measured using a novel infrasonic hemodynography technology, for a patient ...

  6. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    This short sharp change in pressure is rapidly attenuated down the arterial tree. The pulse wave form is also reflected from branches in the arterial tree and gives rise to a dicrotic notch in main arteries. The summation of the reflected pulse wave and the systolic wave may increase pulse pressure and help tissue perfusion.

  7. Rapid Interpretation of EKG's - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_Interpretation_of_EKG's

    Rapid Interpretation of EKG's is a best-selling textbook for over 30 years [1] that teaches the basics of interpreting electrocardiograms. It adopts a simplistic fill-in-the-blank style [ 2 ] and is suited for medical students and junior residents. [ 1 ]

  8. Hexaxial reference system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexaxial_reference_system

    The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane. The hexaxial reference system, better known as the Cabrera system, is a convention to present the extremity leads of the 12 lead electrocardiogram, [1] that provides an illustrative logical sequence that helps interpretation of the ECG, especially to determine the heart's ...

  9. Electrogastrogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogastrogram

    Recording of the Electrogastrogram can be made from either the gastrointestinal surface mucosa, serosa, or the external skin surface.The cutaneous electrogastrography provides an indirect representation of the electrical activity, that has been demonstrated in numerous studies to exactly correspond to simultaneous recordings of the mucosa or serosa.
