  2. QRS complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRS_complex

    The QRS complex is the combination of three of the graphical deflections seen on a typical electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). It is usually the central and most visually obvious part of the tracing. It is usually the central and most visually obvious part of the tracing.

  3. Right axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_axis_deviation

    This refers to the appearance of leads I and II. If the QRS complex is negative in lead I and positive in lead II, the QRS complexes appear to be "reaching" to touch each other. This signifies right axis deviation. Conversely, if the QRS complex is positive in lead I and negative in lead II the leads have the appearance of "leaving" each other.

  4. Left axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_axis_deviation

    In electrocardiography, left axis deviation (LAD) is a condition wherein the mean electrical axis of ventricular contraction of the heart lies in a frontal plane direction between −30° and −90°. This is reflected by a QRS complex positive in lead I and negative in leads aVF and II. [1] There are several potential causes of LAD.

  5. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    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.

  6. QR code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code

    The QR code system was invented in 1994, at the Denso Wave automotive products company, in Japan. [6] [7] [8] The initial alternating-square design presented by the team of researchers, headed by Masahiro Hara, was influenced by the black counters and the white counters played on a Go board; [9] the pattern of the position detection markers was determined by finding the least-used sequence of ...

  7. Rhythm interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_interpretation

    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.

  8. Cardiac conduction system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_conduction_system

    P=P wave, PR=PR interval, QRS=QRS complex, QT=QT interval, ST=ST segment, T=T wave Principle of ECG formation. The red lines represent the depolarization wave, not bloodflow. An electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart.

  9. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    The cycle also correlates to key electrocardiogram tracings: the T wave (which indicates ventricular diastole); the P wave (atrial systole); and the QRS 'spikes' complex (ventricular systole)—all shown as color purple-in-black segments.
