The QRS complex (ventricular complex): normal and abnormal configurations and intervals. A complete QRS complex consists of a Q-, R- and S-wave. However, all three waves may not be visible and there is always variation between the leads. Some leads may display all waves, whereas others might only display one of the waves.

Normal ECG. A normal ECG is illustrated above. Note that the heart is beating in a regular sinus rhythm between 60 - 100 beats per minute (specifically 82 bpm). All the important intervals on this recording are within normal ranges. 1. P wave: upright in leads I, aVF and V3 - V6. normal duration of less than or equal to 0.11 seconds.
S Wave. The S wave is the first downward deflection of the QRS complex that occurs after the R wave. However, a S wave may not be present in all ECG leads in a given patient. In the normal ECG ...
ECG Interpretation: definitions, criteria, and characteristics of the normal ECG waves, intervals, durations and rhythm. This is arguably one of the most important chapters throughout this course. At the heart of ECG interpretation lies the ability to determine whether the ECG waves and intervals are normal. This chapter will focus on the ECG ...
Sinus rhythm (which is the normal rhythm) has the following characteristics: (1) heart rate 50–100 beats per minute; (2) P-wave precedes every QRS complex; (3) the P-wave is positive in lead II and (4) the PR interval is constant. Causes of bradycardia: sinus bradycardia, sinoatrial block, sinoatrial arrest/inhibition, second-degree AV block ...
Mar 5, 2011 · An ECG electrode is a conductive pad attached to the skin to record electrical activity. The data gathered from these electrodes allows the 12 leads of the ECG to be calculated (e.g. lead I is calculated using data from the electrodes on both the right and left arm). The electrodes used to generate a 12-lead ECG are described below.

Feb 28, 2011 · Confirm details. Before beginning ECG interpretation, you should check the following details: Confirm the name and date of birth of the patient matches the details on the ECG. Check the date and time that the ECG was performed. Check the calibration of the ECG (usually 25mm/s and 10mm/1mV).
