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 ...
Age trends were apparent for the QTc interval, QRS axis, and indices of left ventricular hypertrophy. Amplitudes in the left precordial leads showed a substantial increase in the older age groups for women, but not for men. Sex-dependent differences were apparent for most ECG parameters. All ...

Poor R wave progression is abnormal but is not a diagnosis provided faulty ECG technique is ruled out, remembering that it can also be a normal variant. The mean frontal plane electrical QRS axis (electrical axis) usually points to the left and interiorly in the normal heart because of left...
In normal sinus rhythm, what does the P-wave, the PR interval, QRS complex, and QT interval reflect?ECG:An ECG, or electrocardiogram, is an electrical readout of the heart which measures the electrical output of all heart chambers during cardiac cycles. Thi...
Table 2 ECG Measurements for All Data.(± is for verified normally distributed data, (−) is the interquartile range for non-normally distributed data) Full size table Based on the CAG results, we classified coronary artery stenosis as severe (case group) and no/mild (control group) by ...

PR interval(measured from the beginning of the P wave to the first deflection of the QRS complex). Normal range 120 – 200 ms (3 – 5 small squares on ECG paper). QRS duration(measured from first deflection of QRS complex to end of QRS comple...
A 60-year-old woman with a history of hypertension, diabetes and renal disease presented to the hospital complaining of diffuse weakness for 24 hours. On examination, vital signs showed a normal temperature, pulse 100 beats/min, respiratory rate 25 breaths/min, pulse oximetry 97%, blood pressur...
Describe the electrical events occurring in the heart that are responsible for the P wave, QRS complex and T waves of the ECG. What is happening to the myocardium during (1) the PR interval and (2) the ST segment? Summarize the ECG characteristics of the premature ventricular complex given...
