  2. P wave (electrocardiography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_wave_(electrocardiography)

    The P wave is a summation wave generated by the depolarization front as it transits the atria. Normally the right atrium depolarizes slightly earlier than left atrium since the depolarization wave originates in the sinoatrial node, in the high right atrium and then travels to and through the left atrium.

  3. Pulsus bisferiens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsus_bisferiens

    Pulsus bisferiens, also known as biphasic pulse, is an aortic waveform with two peaks per cardiac cycle, a small one followed by a strong and broad one. [1] It is a sign of problems with the aorta , including aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation , as well as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy causing subaortic stenosis.

  4. Sinus rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_rhythm

    any of biphasic (–/+), positive or negative in lead aVL; positive in all chest leads, except for V1 which may be biphasic (+/–) [2] If the P waves do not meet these criteria, they must be originating from an abnormal site elsewhere in the atria and not from the sinus node; the ECG cannot, therefore, be classed as showing a sinus rhythm. [2]

  5. T wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_wave

    Ischemic T waves rise and then fall below the cardiac resting membrane potential; Hypokalemic T waves fall and then rise above the cardiac resting membrane potential; Wellens' Syndrome is a pattern of biphasic T waves in V2–3. It is generally present in patients with ischemic chest pain. Type 1: T-waves are symmetrically and deeply inverted

  6. PR interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PR_interval

    Schematic representation of a normal sinus rhythm EKG wave. In electrocardiography, the PR interval is the period, measured in milliseconds, that extends from the beginning of the P wave (the onset of atrial depolarization) until the beginning of the QRS complex (the onset of ventricular depolarization); it is normally between 120 and 200 ms in duration.

  9. Polyphasic sleep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphasic_sleep

    Biphasic (or diphasic, bifurcated, or bimodal) sleep refers to two periods, while polyphasic usually means more than two. [1] Segmented sleep and divided sleep may refer to polyphasic or biphasic sleep, but may also refer to interrupted sleep , where the sleep has one or several shorter periods of wakefulness, as was the norm for night sleep in ...
