ECG wave test
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| P wave | indicates atrial depolarization, or contraction of the atrium. Normal duration is not longer than 0.11 seconds. no notching or peaking |
| QRS complex | indicates ventricular depolariztion, or contraction of the ventricles. Normally not longer than 0.10 seconds. R waves are deflected positively and the Q & S waves are negative. |
| T wave | Indicates ventricular repolarization. Not more than 5 mm amp. Rounded and asymmetrical |
| ST segment | Indicates early ventricular repolarization. Normally not depressed more than 0.5mm |
| PR interval | Indicates AV conduction time. Duration time is 0.12 to 0.20 seconds |
| QT interval | |

| PR interval | Indicates AV conduction time. Duration time is 0.12 to 0.20 seconds |
| QT interval | measured from the Q to end of the T. Represents ventricular depolarization and repolarization. |
