P wave represent the electrical impulse across the right and left atrium. It travels across the atrial wall. Qrs complex indicates the electrical impulse through the myocardial ventricles. It travels through the bundle of HIS (GOD), right and left bundle branches and then across the right and left ventricular walls.

What part of an ECG represents ventricular depolarization?

Okay so an EKG show the electrical impulse that travels through the heart. What I mean is EKG don't show contraction. However the QRS complex represent ventricular depolarization, which signals ventricular contraction

What does a P wave record on an EKG?

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.


What is represented by the largest wave or curve on an EKG?

by largest, I'll assume tallest. the tallest wave on an EKG is called the QRS complex and represents the contraction of the left ventricle. btw tallest could also mean lowest depending on the particular ekg lead.


What are the 3 components of the ECG trace?

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).


What EKG finding is most consistent with hyperkalemia?

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.

To evaluate a clients atrial depolarization the nurse observes witch part of an EKG?

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.


What does a inverted QRS wave indicate?

In QRS wave, P wave shows atrial contraction or depolarisation whereas, T wave shows ventricular repolarisation.


What does a segment of an ECG tracing indicate?

P waves represent the atrial depolarization. QRS complex represent the ventricular depolarization. T waves represent the ventricular repolarization.
