Answer 1

Dear Student,

ECG stands for Electrocardiogram.

● Electrocardiogram -

• Electrocardiogram shows electrical activity of the heart based on electrodes placed on body.
• Normal ECG consists of following waves - P wave, QRS complex, T wave.

# Interpretation -

• P wave represents atrial depolarization.
• PR interval represents transmission of signal from atria to ventricles.
• QRS complex represents ventricular depolarization.
• ST segment represents platue phase.
• T wave represents ventricular repolarization.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
