QRS interval: What is it? How to measure it?Following an abrupt change in heart rate (HR), QT adaptation is achieved within a delayed time frame. The exclusion of electrocardiograms (ECGs) showing rapid HR changes influences the level of a drug-induced QT prolongation. Continuous 12-lead ...
How to measure the QT interval--what is normal? The QT interval extends from the beginning of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave. Since the report of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen in 1957, it has been difficult to determine whether to measure a QT or a QU interval. U waves are ...
The ECG signal was amplified through the ECG100C system and measured using a standard lead II electrode configuration. A detector system computed beat-to-beat distances between peaks of the QRS (R-waves) in order to calculate interbeat interval (IBI) values. IBI’s were then imported into Ku...

If you have long QT syndrome, the trace of the QT section (showing part of the heartbeat) will be longer than normal. Sometimes an exercise ECG will be needed to confirm the diagnosis. What happens during the QT interval? The QT interval includes the QRS complex, the ST segment, and ...
In a continuous electrocardiogram (ECG) record, metrics are calculated from the interval between two R peaks (RR interval) of the QRS complex (Fig. 1). However, this interval may include ectopic beats, mainly considered as artifacts, which should be excluded from the analysis. The “cleaned”...

condition of the heart. A bigger QRS wave indicates thickening of the heart walls, known ascardiac hypertrophy. An unusually long or short QT interval indicates a higher risk of abnormal heart rhythms andsudden cardiac death. If the ST segment is elevated, it can be a sign of aheart a...
