What does EKG result low voltage mean?
A low voltage EKG means the amplitude of the QRS waves on the EKG are lower than would be expected. COPD, obesity, and pericardial effusions can cause low EKG voltages, amongst other causes.
What causes there to be no p wave on an EKG?
Atrial fibrillation, svt , or a junctional rhythm
Is Lvh with repolarization abnormality dangerous?
LVH (left ventricular hypertrophy) is represented by classic EKG findings, namely that the sum of V1Q and V5R > 35 mm (ie: a very deep Q wave in V1 and a very tall R wave in V5). Further, you will expect to find left axis deviation as represented by tall R waves in both lead II and aVL. LVH is one of many conditions (including bundle branch blocks) that can also have repolarization abnormalities. Simply put, a repolarization abnormality is shown on EKG with a T wave going the opposite direction as the main direction of the QRS. Recall, normally these will be in the same direction despite the fact that the QRS is ventricular depolarization and the T wave is ventricular repolarization, because they occur in opposite directions.
Immediately before the P wave?
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.
Why are volcanoes located in the Pacific Ocean?
Because the Pacific Ocean tectonic plate is still spreading from the East Pacific Oceanic ridge while being subducted underneath at least 6 major and minor tectonic plates , North American , South American, Indian-Australian, Indonesian, Caribbean, and Antarctic. Subduction produces vulcanism when subducted basaltic oceanic crust melts at 700 km or more in the mantle and the magma rises because of density differences to be erupted in volcanoes creating volcanic arcs in either the ocean, like Japan and the Philippine Islands and Indonesia and New Zealand, or on land, like the Andes and the Cascade and Olympic mountain. The San Andreas and associated fault systems are a transform fault system that form part of the Ring of Fire system East Pacific Rise spreading system.
Which system of the body is tested with an EKG test?
Respiratory
What is the ekg technician test?
You have take some training to learn how to perform the ekg on patients. When you qualify and pass this test that make you eligible to work with patients.
What does EKG stands for?
Electrocardiography (EKG or ECG) is a test that detects electrical activity in a person's heart.
How do you pass an EKG test plus on Methadone plus xanax?
You do not "pass" and EKG. An electrocardiogram is a diagnostic test used to determine potential cardiac or heart problems.
Can Zoloft or lasix dieretic interfere with an EKG test?
no
What is the price for a EKG?
On average, this test costs $1,500.
On which diagnostic test would PVCs be found?
EKG
Do you perform a EKG on a person with a pacemaker?
Yes. The paced spikes are easily visualized. The EKG will still show up any irregularities or arrhythmias which may need to be tested for.
How may one find out if he or she has heart disease?
To detect heart disease, you should see your doctor who can perform an EKG test. An EKG test can test the electrical currents to your heart to assess if they are performing properly.
Difference between submaximal test and maximal test?
submaximal test is using ekg or other medical test
What is the training for an EKG technician?
EKG technician training is comprised of a series of classes and written examinations. These examinations are designed to test your ability to operate an EKG machine and your knowledge of its purpose.
Will an EKG test show if you overdosed on Adderall?
No. Only a blood test could show that.
