The limb leads record the ECG in the coronal plane, and so can be used to determine the electrical axis (which is usually measured only in the coronal plane). The limb leads are called leads I, II, III, AVR, AVL and AVF. Figure 2 shows the relat...

Step 1: determine the rhythm Usually this is quite obvious – if there is any doubt, be aware that the key to rhythm analysis is to note the relationship between the P wave and the QRS complex: Sinus rhythm: P wave preceding every QRS complex, one P wave for every QRS complex (Figure...

flowing from the heart into the body, provides information about heart rate, heart rhythm and blood pressure, among other things. The venous pulse, i.e. flowing back to the heart, on the other hand, is much weaker and has less clinical relevance. The pulsations visible in the blood ...

Conversely it is also possible, and more common, to have an EKG show heart activity, and even normal sinus rhythm, after a person has died and their heart is no longer pumping blood. This is called a PEA, pulseless electrical activity, and shows what is left of the heart’s intact elec...
