    The document discusses the key components of an ECG strip including the P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, ST segment, and T wave. It provides information on how to estimate heart rate by counting R-R intervals and how to assess for regularity. Finally, it outlines some abnormal presentations for the P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, ST segment, and T wave.

    BASIC INTERPRETATION OF ECG

    Heart Rate

    To assess for regularity,


    Heart rate can be determine the P-P or R-R
    estimated by dividing 300 waves interval. If there is a
    by the number of large regular interval between the
    boxes in the R-R interval. waves then the rhythm is
    regular in pattern
    e.g. R-R interval is 3 large
    boxes, rate = 100

    P waves abnormal presentations PR Interval abnormal presentations

    QRS Complex abnormal


    presentations
