  2. Intraventricular block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraventricular_block

    An EKG of a 25-year-old male. Intraventricular conduction delays (IVCD) are conduction disorders seen in intraventricular propagation of supraventricular impulses resulting in changes in the QRS complex duration or morphology, or both. IVCD can be caused by abnormalities in the structures of bundle of His, Purkinje fibers or ventricular myocardium.

  3. ST depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST_depression

    Horizontal ST depression in V4, V5, V6 leads during a cardiac stress ECG. Other, non-ischemic, causes include: Side effect of digoxin [4] [3] Hypokalemia [4] [3] Right or left ventricular hypertrophy [3] Intraventricular conduction abnormalities (e.g., right or left bundle branch block, WPW, etc.) [3] Hypothermia [4] Tachycardia [4] Reciprocal ...

  4. Sinus node dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_node_dysfunction

    The ECG shows AV-junctional rhythm resulting in bradycardia at around 46 beats per minute. This ECG from the same patient shows atrial fibrillation at around 126 beats per minute. The most common complication of sinus node dysfunction is the development of tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome with abnormal atrial rhythms such as atrial tachycardia ...

  5. Left axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_axis_deviation

    The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane.. 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°.

  6. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmogenic_cardiomyopathy

    90% of individuals with ARVD have some EKG abnormality. The most common EKG abnormality seen in ACM is T wave inversion in leads V 1 to V 3. However, this is a non-specific finding, and may be considered a normal variant in right bundle branch block (RBBB), women, and children under 12 years old. RBBB itself is seen frequently in individuals ...

  7. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    Electrocardiogram is the process of producing an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG [a]), a recording of the heart's electrical activity through repeated cardiac cycles. [4] It is an electrogram of the heart which is a graph of voltage versus time of the electrical activity of the heart [ 5 ] using electrodes placed on the skin.

  8. Not otherwise specified - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Otherwise_Specified

    In medicine, not otherwise specified (NOS) is a subcategory in systems of disease/disorder classification such as ICD-9, ICD-10, or DSM-IV.It is generally used to note the presence of an illness where the symptoms presented were sufficient to make a general diagnosis, but where a specific diagnosis was not made.

  9. Right heart strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_heart_strain

    On an electrocardiogram (ECG), there are multiple ways RV strain can be demonstrated. A finding of S1Q3T3 [b] is an insensitive [10] sign of right heart strain. [11] It is non-specific (as it does not indicate a cause) and is present in a minority of PE cases. [12] It can also result from acute changes associated with bronchospasm and ...
