The QRS complex is often used to determine the axis of the electrocardiogram, although it is also possible to determine a separate P wave axis. The duration, amplitude, and morphology of the QRS complex are useful in diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias , conduction abnormalities , ventricular hypertrophy , myocardial infarction , electrolyte ...
If no QRS is detected in a window of 166% of the average RR (RRaverage1 or RRaverage2, if the heart rhythm is regular or irregular, respectively), the algorithm adds the maximal peak in the window as a potential QRS and classify it considering half the values of the thresholds (both ThresholdI I and ThresholdI F). This check is implemented ...
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 ...
An unusually tall QRS complex may represent left ventricular hypertrophy while a very low-amplitude QRS complex may represent a pericardial effusion or infiltrative myocardial disease. 80 to 100 ms J-point: The J-point is the point at which the QRS complex finishes and the ST segment begins. The J-point may be elevated as a normal variant.
The QRS complex represents the conduction of the ventricles of the heart, the speed at which they are able to conduct an electrical impulse. The interval between each R wave represents the heart rate, which is critical for determining different rhythms within the defined categories.
QRS wave duration between 100 and 120 ms. rsr, rsR, or rSR in leads V1 or V2. S wave of longer duration than R wave or greater than 40 ms in leads I and V6. Normal R wave peak time in both V5 and V6, but greater than 50 ms in V1. The first three criteria are needed for diagnosis. The fourth is needed when a pure dominant R waver is present on ...
In electrocardiography, the ST segment connects the QRS complex and the T wave and has a duration of 0.005 to 0.150 sec (5 to 150 ms). It starts at the J point (junction between the QRS complex and ST segment) and ends at the beginning of the T wave.
SAECG recording yields a single, averaged QRS potential, usually printed in a much larger scale than standard ECGs, upon which the SAECG software performs calculations to reveal small variations (typically 1-25 uV) in the final portion of the QRS complex (the so-called "late potentials, or more accurately, "late ventricular potentials").
