What is r t segment?

The R-T segment is the portion of the EKG tracing from the R wave to the T wave.


What does a change in the a wave of an ekg mean?

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.


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.


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 is occurring within the heart during each part of the EKG?

The P wave measures the atriums. The Q,R,S Complex measures ventricles. The T wave measures repolarization.


What does to EKG look like with aortic stenosis?

What does abnormal t wave mean?

What condition contributes to a reduction in the size of the T wave?

Conditions such as hypokalemia (low potassium levels) or myocardial ischemia can contribute to a reduction in the size of the T wave on an electrocardiogram (ECG). These conditions can affect the repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential, leading to changes in the T wave morphology.


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 sound wave is the pitch related to?

In a way, yes, as the pitch of a sound wave is determined by it's frequency f, and a waves period T is the reciprocal of f. i.e. T=1/f
