QRS elongation, also known as QRS widening, refers to an increased duration of the QRS complex on an electrocardiogram (ECG), typically exceeding 0.12 seconds. This elongation can indicate various underlying conditions, such as bundle branch block, ventricular hypertrophy, or electrolyte imbalances. It can suggest impaired conduction through the ventricles and may be associated with an increased risk of arrhythmias. Proper evaluation by a healthcare professional is essential to determine the underlying cause and appropriate management.
The Volunteer Fire Company I work at has A Quick Response Service or (QRS). The QRS Vehicle is a 1999 Chevrolet suburban 2500 4x4. We use our QRS o respond to medical calls in our area? I am wonder why some Fire companies like mine use Quick Response units? what is the difference between a QRS unit and an Ambulance. Our QRS doesn't carries people but it carries equipment and backboards. Why are QRS used instead of an ambulance. Thanks. :)
QRS Records was created in 1928.
Nothing, they are equivalent.
"QRS" generally means to send messages slower.
does a normal qrs complex measures <.12
QRS-- A pattern seen in an electrocardiogram that indicates the pulses in a heart beat and their duration. Variations from a normal QRS pattern indicate heart disease.
the answer is RS
Internodal elongation is stimulated by
The QRS complex on an ECG represents ventricular depolarisation. This wave should have the greatest amplitude.
strain is percent elongation/100; for example a strain of 0.02 is 2% elongation. Often we refer to elongation at failure; for example if a material fails at 10% elongation its strain is 0.10
The R-R interval is a medical term used to describe the peak of one QRS to another. This is used to asses the ventricular rate.
A QRS wave is caused by the depolarization of the ventricles of the heart, which leads to the contraction of the ventricles and the pumping of blood out of the heart. The QRS complex represents the electrical activity associated with this depolarization.
