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...
QRS duration usually <0.12s unless coexisting RBBB Must first exclude (on clinical grounds) other causes of right axis deviation such as cor pulmonale, pulmonary heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, etc., because these conditions can result in the identical ECG picture! The changes imposed in ...
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 ...
