Intervals and Segments of the Normal
EKG
22/01/2015 24
INTERVALS AND SEGMENTS !
• PR Interval- Onset of P wave to onset
of QRS. (.12-.20sec or 3-5 small
squares)
• QRS Complex-Beginning and end of
QRS wave.(0.08 -12sec duration or 3
small squares)
• QT interval- Beginning of QRS to end of
T wave.( Calculated as corrected QT = .
42 sec 0r 10 - 12 ss)
• ST segment ( no elevation or
depression)

Waves of the ECG.
ECG
• P Wave-Atrial Depolarization
• PR Segment-Indicative of the delay in the AV node conduction
• PR Interval-Refers to all electrical activity in the heart before the
impulse reaches the ventricles
• Q Wave-First negative deflection after the P wave but before the R
wave
• R Wave-First positive deflection following the P wave
• S Wave-First negative deflection after the R wave
• QRS Complex-Signifies ventricular depolarization ...leads to
ventricular systole.
• ST segment: isoelectric line, ventricles in complete depolarisation.
• Note: Atrial repolarization wave is buried in the QRS complex.
• T Wave-Indicates ventricular repolarization...leads to ventricular
diastole.

Feature Description Duration
ECG Findings
• Within the few hours of the onset of
symptoms, the ECG shows ST segment
elevation and in the following days
there is a series of ECG changes.
