  2. QRS complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRS_complex

    Schematic representation of a normal sinus rhythm ECG wave. Diagram showing how the polarity of the QRS complex in leads I, II, and III can be used to estimate the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane. The QRS complex is the combination of three of the graphical deflections seen on a typical electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). It is usually ...

  3. Sgarbossa's criteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sgarbossa's_criteria

    Several other studies have evaluated the usefulness of different ECG findings in diagnosing MI when LBBB is present. Smith et al. modified Sgarbossa's original criteria. [6] Smith modified Sgarbossa rule: at least one lead with concordant STE (Sgarbossa criterion 1) or; at least one lead of V1-V3 with concordant ST depression (Sgarbossa ...

  4. Rhythm interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_interpretation

    There are 6 different sinus arrhythmia. [1] [2]A normal heart should have a normal sinus rhythm, this rhythm can be identified by a ventricular rate of 60-100 bpm, at a regular rate, with a normal PR interval (0.12 to 0.20 second) and a normal QRS complex (0.12 second and less).

  5. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    In a 12-lead ECG, all leads except the limb leads are assumed to be unipolar (aVR, aVL, aVF, V 1, V 2, V 3, V 4, V 5, and V 6). The measurement of a voltage requires two contacts and so, electrically, the unipolar leads are measured from the common lead (negative) and the unipolar lead (positive).

  6. Pan–Tompkins algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan–Tompkins_algorithm

    ECG beat. The Pan–Tompkins algorithm [1] is commonly used to detect QRS complexes in electrocardiographic signals . The QRS complex represents the ventricular depolarization and the main spike visible in an ECG signal (see figure). This feature makes it particularly suitable for measuring heart rate, the

  7. Hexaxial reference system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexaxial_reference_system

    The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane. The hexaxial reference system, better known as the Cabrera system, is a convention to present the extremity leads of the 12 lead electrocardiogram, [1] that provides an illustrative logical sequence that helps interpretation of the ECG, especially to determine the heart's ...

  8. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    P=P wave, PR=PR interval, QRS=QRS complex, QT=QT interval, ST=ST segment, T=T wave Wiggers with jugular venous waveform Wiggers diagram with mechanical (echo), electrical (ECG), and aortic pressure (catheter) waveforms, together with an in-ear dynamic pressure waveform measured using a novel infrasonic hemodynography technology, for a patient ...

  9. QT interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QT_interval

    In the superimposed median beat method, a median ECG complex is constructed for each of the 12 leads. The 12 median beats are superimposed on each other and the QT interval is measured either from the earliest onset of the Q wave to the latest offset of the T wave or from the point of maximum convergence for the Q wave onset to the T wave ...
