  2. 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.

  3. Pan–Tompkins algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan–Tompkins_algorithm

    ECG beat. The Pan–Tompkins algorithm [1] is commonly used to detect QRS complexes in electrocardiographic signals ().The QRS complex represents the ventricular depolarization and the main spike visible in an ECG signal (see figure).

  4. Dale Dubin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dale_Dubin

    Dubin practiced medicine in Tampa, Florida, [1] and gained fame within the medical community with the 1972 publication of Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, a best-selling textbook suited for medical students and junior residents. [2] In it, Dubin adopts a simplistic fill-in-the-blank style to teach the basics of reading electrocardiograms. [3]

  5. 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 ...

  6. Driven right leg circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driven_right_leg_circuit

    Driven Right Leg Circuit for Electrocardiogram. A Driven Right Leg circuit or DRL circuit, also known as Right Leg Driving technique, is an electric circuit that is often added to biological signal amplifiers to reduce common-mode interference.

  7. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    Wiggers diagram with mechanical (echo), electrical (ECG), and aortic pressure (catheter) waveforms, together with an in-ear dynamic pressure waveform measured using a novel infrasonic hemodynography technology, for a patient with severe aortic stenosis.

  8. Electrogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogram

    When electrical recordings are made from the skin, it is considered to be an ECG as described above. However, electrical recordings made from within the heart such as with an artificial cardiac pacemaker or during an electrophysiology study, the signals recorded are considered an "electrogram" instead of an ECG. These signals are not ...

  9. Heart rate monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_monitor

    Early models consisted of a monitoring box with a set of electrode leads which attached to the chest. The first wireless EKG heart rate monitor was invented in 1977 by Polar Electro as a training aid for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski team. As "intensity training" became a popular concept in athletic circles in the mid-80s, retail sales ...
