There is no clear consensus on what they represent; however, delayed repolarization of the tissue known as papillary muscle or Purkinje fibers is often seen when present. J Wave. Osborn waves or “J” waves are seen mostly during hypothermia. This wave presents a small deflection at the ...
A q-wave is an initial downward deflection in the QRS complex. These are normal in left-sided chest leads (V5, 6, lead I, aVL) as they represent septal depolarization from left to right. This is as long as they are <0.04secs long (1 small square) and <2mm deep. If q-waves are ...
The P waves are abnormal, and they are tall, narrow, and peaked inleads II, aVF, and V1-V2. The P-wave morphology is characteristic ofaP pulmonale, a result ofright atrial hypertrophy. This may also betermed ari...

Duration: 10 seconds.Several years ago, Pinciroli=-=[1]-=- began studying methods for determining the direction of the axis, in order to create ``virtual ECG leads'' which would represent what might be obtained from electrodes fixed in position relative to t...Pellegrini, A., Pinciroli,...
What is an ECG? What does a normal ECG indicate?Question:What is an ECG? What does a normal ECG indicate?Cardiovascular Diseases:Cardiovascular diseases are those diseases that affect the normal functioning of the heart. The most common cardiovascular diseases are arrhythmias, congenital heart diseas...
In contrast, ventricular fibrillation is a severe and totally disorganized rhythm that leads to death if no immediate medical attention is provided [59]. Interestingly, ventricular fibrillation has been associated with chaotic behavior; this fact has motivated the investigation and development of new ...
Emanuel Goldberger increases the voltage of Wilson's unipolar leads by 50% and creates the augmented limb leads aVR, aVL and aVF. When added to Einthoven's three limb leads and the six chest leads we arrive at the 12-lead electrocardiogram that is used today. ...
In this paper, we will review common feature extraction methodologies that have been applied to ECG signals over the years (refer to Fig.2), everywhere from single-lead ECGs to multi-lead ECGs (note that the number of leads used affects the complexity of the techniques discussed, and thus ...
ECG+ interprets your Apple Watch ECGs to detect potential arrhythmias and abnormalities, such as PAC, PVC, Long QT, and T wave changes (inverted or flattened).…
