p-wave is a wave of depolarization that spreads from the SA node throughout the atria, and is usually 0.08 to 0.2 seconds (80-200 ms) in duration. The brief isoelectric (zero voltage) period after the P wave represents the time in which the impulse is traveling within the AV node and the bundle of His.
What else can I help you with?
The portion of the ECG that corresponds to atrial depolarization is the?
The portion of the ECG that corresponds to atrial depolarization is called the P wave. The P wave is the first wave on the ECG.
What do P, QRS, and T waves represent in an electrocardiogram (ECG)?
The P wave represents atrial depolarization, the QRS complex represents ventricular depolarization, and the T wave represents ventricular repolarization in an electrocardiogram (ECG).
What wave comes after the t wave of an ECG?
The next wave after the T wave in an ECG is the P wave, which represents atrial depolarization.
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.
What do the letters PQRST represent?
P, Q, R, S and T each represent a wave of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The waves, and the ECG in general, confer a graphic representation of the hearth's electric activity. The ECG of a healthy person usually contains three waves, called the P wave, the QRS complex and the T wave. The P wave corresponds to the electric depolarization of the auricles, the QRS complex corresponds to the electric depolarization of the ventricles and the repolarization of the auricles, and the T wave corresponds to the electric repolarization of the ventricles. A complete period of an ECG (that is, the P, QRS, and T waves) represents the electrical activity of the heart for one pulse.
What is the ECG wave that results from the depolarization of the ventricle?
the P wave
What ecg curves represent recovery of the ventricles?
t wave
If you have an ECG conducted what causes the P wave?
oops
What are the differences between the T wave and P wave in an electrocardiogram (ECG)?
The P wave represents the electrical activity of the atria contracting, while the T wave represents the electrical activity of the ventricles relaxing in an ECG.
What contraction of the atria results from which wave of depolarization on the ECG tracing?
P wave
What does the T wave in an ECG represent?
The T wave in an ECG represents the repolarization of the ventricles in the heart, indicating the recovery phase before the next heartbeat.
What does the T wave on an ECG represent?
The T wave on an ECG represents the repolarization of the ventricles in the heart, indicating the recovery phase before the next heartbeat.
