  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. 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).

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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. [1] [2] The Cardiac Cycle: Valve Positions, Blood Flow, and ECG The parts of a QRS complex and

  6. Left axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_axis_deviation

    There are several methods to determining the ECG axis. The easiest method is the quadrant method, where one looks at lead I and lead aVF. First, examine the QRS complex in both leads I and avF and determine if the QRS complex is positive (height of R wave > S wave), equiphasic (R wave = S wave), or negative (R wave < S wave).

  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. Bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_branch_block

    A right bundle branch block typically causes prolongation of the last part of the QRS complex and may shift the heart's electrical axis slightly to the right. The ECG will show a terminal R wave in lead V1 and a slurred S wave in lead I. Left bundle branch block widens the entire QRS, and in most cases shifts the heart's electrical axis to the ...

  9. Precordial concordance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precordial_concordance

    Precordial concordance, also known as QRS concordance is when all precordial leads on an electrocardiogram are either positive (positive concordance) or negative ...
