Assuming you are talking about Electrocardiogram readings, the ventricular contraction is represented by the 'R' wave. The R wave is so much higher because the left and right ventricles are made up of the largest and strongest muscles of the heart and show the largest electrical energies on the ECG when they are contracted.
The wave for ventricular contraction is larger than the wave for atrial contraction. This is because the ventricles have thicker muscle walls and contract more forcefully in order to pump blood out to the body.
The deflection waves in an ECG tracing include the P wave (atrial depolarization), QRS complex (ventricular depolarization), and T wave (ventricular repolarization). Each of these waves represents different electrical activity of the heart during a cardiac cycle.
PQRST represents the five key components of a normal cardiac cycle on an ECG trace: P wave (atrial depolarization), QRS complex (ventricular depolarization), T wave (ventricular repolarization), and sometimes the U wave (late ventricular repolarization). Analyzing these waves helps to identify abnormalities in the heart's electrical activity.
During the R wave of an electrocardiogram (ECG), there is depolarization of the ventricles, which leads to the contraction of the ventricular muscles. This electrical event is followed by the mechanical event of ventricular systole, where the ventricles forcefully pump blood out to the body and lungs.
The second heart sound (S2) occurs after the T wave because it corresponds to the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves in the heart. The T wave represents ventricular repolarization, which happens after ventricular contraction and ejection of blood through the aortic and pulmonic valves. The closure of these valves generates the S2 sound.
The wave indicating atrial repolarization wave is hidden by the QRS complex. Ventricular repolarization is indicated by the T wave.
the ventricular contraction wave is larger
The portion of the ECG that indicates ventricular repolarization or recovery is the t wave. It is the wave found after the QRS complex (Ventricular depolarizaton) in a normal ECG
The wave for ventricular contraction is larger than the wave for atrial contraction. This is because the ventricles have thicker muscle walls and contract more forcefully in order to pump blood out to the body.
The P-wave corresponds to atrial depolarisation.The QRS complex corresponds to ventricular depolarisation.The T-wave corresponds to ventricular repolarisation.
The lub sound occurs around the peak of the R wave in an ECG because it is associated with closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves, which happens at the beginning of ventricular contraction. This coincides with the R wave, which represents ventricular depolarization and the onset of ventricular systole.
The deflection waves in an ECG tracing include the P wave (atrial depolarization), QRS complex (ventricular depolarization), and T wave (ventricular repolarization). Each of these waves represents different electrical activity of the heart during a cardiac cycle.
in an ECG pattern, the T wave is caused by
In QRS wave, P wave shows atrial contraction or depolarisation whereas, T wave shows ventricular repolarisation.
The P wave represents atrial depolarization, the QRS complex represents ventricular depolarization, and the T wave represents ventricular repolarization in an electrocardiogram (ECG).
PQRST represents the five key components of a normal cardiac cycle on an ECG trace: P wave (atrial depolarization), QRS complex (ventricular depolarization), T wave (ventricular repolarization), and sometimes the U wave (late ventricular repolarization).

No it does not. Atrial repolarization is generally not visible on the telemetry strip because it happens at the same time as ventricular depolarization (QRS complex). The P wave represents atrial DEpolarization (and atrial systole). Atrial repolarization happens during atrial diastole (and ventricular systole).
