2. Right axis deviation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_axis_deviation

   If lead b is positive, the electrical heart axis can be estimated to lie within the quadrant between axis of lead a and lead b. A simple tool to quickly identify axis deviation (Figure 3) is the popular mnemonic; Reaching for Right Axis Deviation and Leaving for Left Axis Deviation. This refers to the appearance of leads I and II.

3. Hexaxial reference system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexaxial_reference_system

   The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane. The hexaxial reference system, better known as the Cabrera system, is a convention to present the extremity leads of the 12 lead electrocardiogram, [1] that provides an illustrative logical sequence that helps interpretation of the ECG, especially to determine the heart's ...

4. 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°.

5. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

   Electrocardiography 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.

6. Automated ECG interpretation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_ECG_interpretation

   Automated ECG interpretation is the use of artificial intelligence and pattern recognition software and knowledge bases to carry out automatically the interpretation, test reporting, and computer-aided diagnosis of electrocardiogram tracings obtained usually from a patient.

7. QT interval - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QT_interval

   The QT interval is a measurement made on an electrocardiogram used to assess some of the electrical properties of the heart.It is calculated as the time from the start of the Q wave to the end of the T wave, and approximates to the time taken from when the cardiac ventricles start to contract to when they finish relaxing.

8. Cardiac function curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_function_curve

   The horizontal axis of Guyton diagram represents right atrial pressure or central venous pressure, and the vertical axis represents cardiac output or venous return. The red curve sloping upward to the right is the cardiac output curve, and the blue curve sloping downward to the right is the venous return curve. A steady state is formed at the ...

9. Vectorcardiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vectorcardiography

   A broad SA results when the heart undergoes pathological changes and is reflected in a discordant ECG. A large SA indicates an altered ventricular repolarization sequence, and may be the result of structural and functional myocardial changes that induce regional shortening in action potential duration and impaired ion channel functioning.
