  2. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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.

  5. Rhythm interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_interpretation

    There are 6 different sinus arrhythmia. [1] [2]A normal heart should have a normal sinus rhythm, this rhythm can be identified by a ventricular rate of 60-100 bpm, at a regular rate, with a normal PR interval (0.12 to 0.20 second) and a normal QRS complex (0.12 second and less).

  6. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    In a healthy heart all activities and rests during each individual cardiac cycle, or heartbeat, are initiated and orchestrated by signals of the heart's electrical conduction system, which is the "wiring" of the heart that carries electrical impulses throughout the body of cardiomyocytes, the specialized muscle cells of the heart.

  7. Cardiac conduction system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_conduction_system

    Different wave shapes generated by different parts of the heart's action potential The ECG complex. P=P wave, PR=PR interval, QRS=QRS complex, QT=QT interval, ST=ST segment, T=T wave Principle of ECG formation. The red lines represent the depolarization wave, not bloodflow. An electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical activity of the ...

  8. ST segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST_segment

    Schematic representation of normal ECG. In electrocardiography, the ST segment connects the QRS complex and the T wave and has a duration of 0.005 to 0.150 sec (5 to 150 ms). It starts at the J point (junction between the QRS complex and ST segment) and ends at the beginning of the T wave.

  9. Sinus rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_rhythm

    Normal heart rate (classically 60 to 100 beats per minute for an adult). Regular rhythm, with less than 0.16-second variation in the shortest and longest durations between successive P waves; The sinus node should pace the heart – therefore, P waves must be round, all the same shape, and present before every QRS complex in a ratio of 1:1.
