| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| P wave: | Atrial depolarization |
| PR interval: | Time required for conduction from the SA node to AV node. The time between atrial and ventricular depolarization. This is normally .12 to .2 seconds. |
| QRS complex: | Ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization. |
| QT interval: | Electrical systole that is measured by the time elapsed from the start of the Q wave to the end of the T wave. This is normally .32 to .40 seconds. |
| ST segment: | Delay before repolarization of the ventricles; useful in assessing myocardial ischemia. |
| T wave: | Ventricular repolarization |
