  2. T wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_wave

    The last half of the T wave is referred to as the relative refractory period or vulnerable period. The T wave contains more information than the QT interval. The T wave can be described by its symmetry, skewness, slope of ascending and descending limbs, amplitude and subintervals like the T peak –T end interval. [1] In most leads, the T wave ...

  3. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    Inverted T waves can be a sign of myocardial ischemia, left ventricular hypertrophy, high intracranial pressure, or metabolic abnormalities. Peaked T waves can be a sign of hyperkalemia or very early myocardial infarction. 160 ms Corrected QT interval (QTc) The QT interval is measured from the beginning of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave.

    ST-T Abnormalities: ST-T vector opposite to QRS without digitalis; ST-T vector opposite to QRS with digitalis; 3 1 Negative terminal P mode in V 1 1 mm in depth and 0.04 sec in duration (indicates left atrial enlargement) 3 Left axis deviation (QRS of −30° or more) 2 QRS duration ≥0.09 sec 1 Delayed intrinsicoid deflection in V 5 or V 6 ...

  6. T wave alternans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_wave_alternans

    Microvolt T wave alternans is a variant of T wave alternans that detects T wave alternans signals as small as one-millionth of a volt. Microvolt T wave alternans is defined as an alternation in the morphology of the T wave in an every other beat or AB-AB pattern. It has long been associated with ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death.

  7. Left bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_bundle_branch_block

    Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a conduction abnormality in the heart that can be seen on an electrocardiogram (ECG). [1] In this condition, activation of the left ventricle of the heart is delayed, which causes the left ventricle to contract later than the right ventricle .

  8. Strain pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_pattern

    In electrocardiography, a strain pattern is a well-recognized marker for the presence of anatomic left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in the form of ST depression and T wave inversion on a resting ECG. [1] It is an abnormality of repolarization and it has been
