|
P wave |
The spread of stimulus through the Atria atrial depolarization |
|
|
PR interval |
The time from the initial stimulation of the Atria to the initial stimulation of the ventricles usually 0.12 to 0.20 seconds |
|
|
QRS complex |
Spread of a stimulus through the ventricles ventricular depolarization less than 0.10 seconds |
|
|
ST segment and T wave |
ventricular repolarization |
|
|
U wave |
The small deflection rarely seen after the T wave thought to be related to repolarization of the purkinje fibers check electrolytes |
|
|
QT interval |
The time elapsed from the onset of ventricular depolarization until the completion of ventricular repolarization |
