How to calculate a heart rate on a normal ECG Irregular heart rhythm If a patient’s heart rhythm isirregular,the first heart rate calculation method doesn’t work (as the R-R interval differs significantly throughout the ECG). As a result, you need to apply a different method: Count the...
It will be clear from above that the first structure to be depolarised during normal sinus rhythm is the right atrium, closely followed by the left atrium. So the first electrical signal on a normal ECG originates from the atria and is known as theP wa...

Normal Duration: 0.06 – 0.12 sec The PR Interval displays the transfer time for the electrical signal to move from the sinus node to the ventricles. Normal Duration: 0.012 – 0.20 sec The QRS Complex indicates ventricular depolarization and contraction. It begins with the minor downward deflecti...
Understanding ECG test results on the Apple Watch After the test is concluded, you will see one of the five messages listed below: Sinus rhythm: Your heart is beating at a normal rate, usually between 50 and 100 BPM. Atrial fibrillation: Atrial fibrillation (or AFib) signifies an irregu...
What do cardiologists look for in an ECG? A normal heartbeat on the ECG graph will show the time the electrical wave takes to move through your heart. By measuring time intervals on an ECG, health practitioners can see whether this electricity travel is too slow, normal, too fast, or ev...
