Knowing the basic parts of an ECG tracing will lay a good foundation for everything else that is to come. The different waves, complexes and intervals need to be ingrained in your brain.

The QT interval is the time from the beginning of the QRS complex, representing ventricular depolarization, to the end of the T wave, resulting from ventricular repolarization. The normal QT ...

VPDs with very short coupling intervals developing during an acute stage of myocardial infarction would predict the ...

31 As such, the ECG must be examined critically for not only the length of the QT interval but also the look of the T-wave and T/U-wave morphologies. The QT interval is a fluid measurement that is ...

1 The majority of disorders associated with increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD), such as cardiomyopathies and primary electrical diseases, are suggested by abnormal findings present on an ECG ...

In 'Bedside to Bench', Stanley Nattel examines recent clinical studies suggesting that a particular type of readout on an electrocardiogram (ECG) may increase the risk of the condition.
