Click here for an animation of the normal sinus rhythm from the P wave to T
wave. You will need shockwave.
he PR interval is the portion of the EKG wave from the beginning of the P
wave ( onset of atrial depolarization) to the beginning of the QRS complex ( onset
of ventricular depolarization). It is normally 0.12 - 0.20 seconds. More...
he PR segment is the portion on the EKG wave from the end of the P wave to
the beginning of the QRS complex. The PR segment corresponds to the time
between the end of atrial depolarization to the onset of ventricular depolarization.
It is an isoelectric segment, during which the impulse travels from the AV node
through the conducting tissue (bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers) towards the
ventricles. More...
The QT interval begins at the onset of the QRS complex and to the end of the T
wave. It represents the time of ventricular depolarization until ventricular
repolarization. More...
The T wave due to ventricular repolarization The wave is normally rounded and
positive. More...
