Atrial fibrillation, svt , or a junctional rhythm
i believe it is the primary wave (p-wave)
In science p can be the symbol of pressure, probability, phosphorus (as capital letter), poise, pico and many others; see the link below.
The electrical milestone event that occurs at the P wave of the cardiac cycle of the EKG is atrial depolarization. The upward stroke is right atrial depolarization, and the downward stroke is left atrial depolarization. Normally, this lasts for no more than 0.11 sec.
A p wave is the primary or compression wave in a seismic wave. it's wavy
no a p wave is faster than s wave
The P wave represents atrial depolarization (they contract). In a normal EKG, the P-wave precedes the QRS complex. It looks like a small bump upwards from the baseline.

Yes, a V wave will be seen on a normal EKG tracing. A V wave can signal a lot of things in an EKG, but what it means will be up to the person reading the EKG and the person's reason for the EKG.
No it does not. Atrial repolarization is generally not visible on the telemetry strip because it happens at the same time as ventricular depolarization (QRS complex). The P wave represents atrial DEpolarization (and atrial systole). Atrial repolarization happens during atrial diastole (and ventricular systole).
The only EKG waves are P, Q, R, S, T, and U (abnormal). Actually, there are other waves. The "A" , "C", and "V" waves are found on the EKG during atrial filling or DIASTOLE. The "A" wave is the result of the atrial contraction and can be found in the PR interval. This "A" wave is a type of fluid volume indicator, the more the atrium fill, the higher this wave will be.
The EKG or ECG components are the P wave (contraction of the atria), the QRS complex (the contraction of the ventricles) and the T wave (repolarization of the ventricles).
With mild elevation in potassium there is a reduction in the P-wave, and a peaking of the T-wave. With severe elevation in potassium there is a widening of the QRS complex.

the P wave
On the EKG readout the P Wave represents atrial depolarization. For a healthy person it should be smooth, round and upright, and preceding the QRS complex.
