    003868. [edit on Wikidata] Use of real time monitoring of the heart in an intensive care unit in a German hospital (2015), the monitoring screen above the patient displaying an electrocardiogram and various values of parameters of the heart like heart rate and blood pressure. Electrocardiography is the process of producing an electrocardiogram ...

  3. Holter monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holter_monitor

    Holter monitor. In medicine, a Holter monitor (often simply Holter) is a type of ambulatory electrocardiography device, a portable device for cardiac monitoring (the monitoring of the electrical activity of the cardiovascular system) for at least 24 hours. The Holter's most common use is for monitoring ECG heart activity (electrocardiography or ...

  4. Cardiac monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_monitoring

    Holter monitor. Cardiac monitoring generally refers to continuous or intermittent monitoring of heart activity to assess a patient's condition relative to their cardiac rhythm. Cardiac monitoring is usually carried out using electrocardiography, which is a noninvasive process that records the heart's electrical activity and displays it in an ...

  5. Einthoven's triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einthoven's_triangle

    Einthoven's triangle. Einthoven's triangle is an imaginary formation of three limb leads in a triangle used in the electrocardiography, formed by the two shoulders and the pubis. [1] The shape forms an inverted equilateral triangle with the heart at the center. It is named after Willem Einthoven, who theorized its existence.

  6. Sinus node dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_node_dysfunction

    Sinus node dysfunction (SND), also known as sick sinus syndrome (SSS), is a group of abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) usually caused by a malfunction of the sinus node, the heart's primary pacemaker. [1][2] Tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome is a variant of sick sinus syndrome in which the arrhythmia alternates between fast and slow heart rates.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Cardiac electrophysiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_electrophysiology

    Cardiac electrophysiology. Drawing of the ECG, with labels of intervals. Cardiac electrophysiology is a branch of cardiology and basic science focusing on the electrical activities of the heart. The term is usually used in clinical context, to describe studies of such phenomena by invasive (intracardiac) catheter recording of spontaneous ...

    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] The book was written by Dale Dubin, M.D., a plastic surgeon and convicted felon, [3] who has ...
