🗑
show one abnormality—an elevated heart rate.•Heart rate: >100 beats/min•PR interval: 0.12–0.20 s•QRS complex: <0.12 s•T wave: upright•ST segment: flat•R to R interval: regular (varying less than 0.12 s between QRS complexes)  
🗑
show one abnormality—a decreased heart rate.•Heart rate: < 60 beats/min•PR interval: 0.12–0.20 s•QRS complex: <0.12 s•T wave: upright•ST segment: flat•R to R interval: regular (varying less than 0.12 s between QRS complexes)
