  2. P wave (electrocardiography) - Wikipedia

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

    A P wave with increased amplitude can indicate hypokalemia. [3] It can also indicate right atrial enlargement. [4] A P wave with decreased amplitude can indicate hyperkalemia. [5] P-wave changes in left and right atrial hypertrophy. Bifid P waves (known as P mitrale) indicate left-atrial abnormality - e.g. dilatation [6] or hypertrophy. [1]

  3. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    The P wave is typically upright in most leads except for aVR; an unusual P wave axis (inverted in other leads) can indicate an ectopic atrial pacemaker. If the P wave is of unusually long duration, it may represent atrial enlargement. Typically a large right atrium gives a tall, peaked P wave while a large left atrium gives a two-humped bifid P ...

  4. Sinus rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_rhythm

    Normal heart rate (classically 60 to 100 beats per minute for an adult). Regular rhythm, with less than 0.16-second variation in the shortest and longest durations between successive P waves; The sinus node should pace the heart – therefore, P waves must be round, all the same shape, and present before every QRS complex in a ratio of 1:1.

  5. Significant wave height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_wave_height

    The RMS wave height, which is defined as square root of the average of the squares of all wave heights, is approximately equal to H s divided by 1.4. [2] [8] For example, according to the Irish Marine Institute: [9] "… at midnight on 9/12/2007 a record significant wave height was recorded of 17.2m at with [sic] a period of 14 seconds."

  6. Wave height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_height

    Depending on context, wave height may be defined in different ways: For a sine wave, the wave height H is twice the amplitude (i.e., the peak-to-peak amplitude): [1] =.; For a periodic wave, it is simply the difference between the maximum and minimum of the surface elevation z = η(x – c p t): [1] = {()} {()}, with c p the phase speed (or propagation speed) of the wave.

  7. Wandering atrial pacemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandering_atrial_pacemaker

    Both arrhythmias have at least 3 different P-wave morphologies in a single ECG lead, but the heart rate is different. When the heart rate is lower than 100 beats per minute, the heart rhythm is considered wandering atrial pacemaker. When the heart rate is greater than 100 beats per minute, the heart rhythm is considered multifocal atrial ...

  8. QRS complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRS_complex

    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.

  9. Full width at half maximum - Wikipedia

    If the considered function is the density of a normal distribution of the form = ⁡ [()] where σ is the standard deviation and x 0 is the expected value, then the relationship between FWHM and the standard deviation is [1] = ⁡.
