The shape of the T wave is usually asymmetrical with a rounded peak. T wave inversions from V2 to V4 leads are frequently found and normal in children. In normal adults, T wave inversions from V2 to V3 are less commonly found but can be normal. [4] The depth of the T wave also becomes progressively shallow from one to the next lead. [5]
Animation of a normal ECG wave Schematic representation of a normal ECG. All of the waves on an ECG tracing and the intervals between them have a predictable time duration, a range of acceptable amplitudes , and a typical morphology. Any deviation from the normal tracing is potentially pathological and therefore of clinical significance.
R-peak time for right ventricle is measured from leads V1 or V2, where upper range of normal is 35 ms. R wave peak time for left ventricle is measured from lead V5 or V6 and 45 ms is the upper range of normal. [7] R wave peak time is considered to be prolonged if it's more than 45 ms.
Schematic representation of normal ECG. In electrocardiography, the ST segment connects the QRS complex and the T wave and has a duration of 0.005 to 0.150 sec (5 to 150 ms). It starts at the J point (junction between the QRS complex and ST segment) and ends at the beginning of the T wave.
In the superimposed median beat method, a median ECG complex is constructed for each of the 12 leads. The 12 median beats are superimposed on each other and the QT interval is measured either from the earliest onset of the Q wave to the latest offset of the T wave or from the point of maximum convergence for the Q wave onset to the T wave ...
The hexaxial reference system can be used to visualise the directions in which the depolarisation wave may travel. On a hexaxial diagram (see figure 1): If the electrical axis falls between the values of -30° and +90° this is considered normal. If the electrical axis is between -30° and -90° this is considered left axis deviation.
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.

There are 6 different sinus arrhythmia. [1] [2]A normal heart should have a normal sinus rhythm, this rhythm can be identified by a ventricular rate of 60-100 bpm, at a regular rate, with a normal PR interval (0.12 to 0.20 second) and a normal QRS complex (0.12 second and less).
