If the axis is more negative than –30° it is referred to as left axis deviation. The axis is calculated (to the nearest degree) by the ECG machine. The axis can also be approximated manually by judging the net direction of the QRS complex in leads I and II. The following rules ...

The half along the positive side of the lead axis is the positive hemisphere. Any resultant heart vector in that hemisphere has a...

An apparently normal ECG is defined by the following [30]: 1) heart rate between 55 and 100 bpm; 2) presence of P waves in all leads, with normal morphology; 3) presence of a QRS complex following each P wave; 4) PR interval between 0.12 to 0.20 seconds; 5) QRS duration ≤ 0.12...
There is an isoelectric line separating the activity of the P wave from the QRS and the QRS from the T wave. Counting the number of QRS complexes occurring per second gives the heart rate of the individual. The electrical axis (EA) of the heart is a vector originating in the center ...
In subject area: Medicine and Dentistry The J point on the normal ECG indicates the junction between the QRS complex and the ST segment and, thereby, the end of activation of the ventricles on the ECG. From: Journal of Electrocardiology, 2013 ...
Fill in the blanks: In an ECG under normal conditions, the duration of the QRS complex is less than ___ second, or ___ small squares. The Ventricles of the Heart: The ventricles refer to the bottom two chambers of the heart. The right...
Diagrams of polymorph of P, QRS, and T waves of normal human subjects were obtained. On the surface ECG, the reflections of the beat to beat changes of the electrical activities of myocardial cells were observed by power spectrum analysis and time-donain temporary analysis. The meaning of ...
