Paper speed and standardization
Ø Recordings are usually made at 25 mm per second
(mm/s).
Ø A standard deflection (a box that looks like half a
rectangle) should be inscribed at the beginning or
end of the ECG.
Ø The ECG is usually standardised so that the
amplitude of a 1 millivolt impulse causes a
deflection of 10 mm
Ø An increased amplitude (or voltage) usually
indicates increased muscle mass of the heart.

ECG Complex
An ECG complex is comprised of
An ECG complex is comprised of
• A, P wave representing atrial depolarization.
• The presence of P waves indicates ‘sinus rhythm’, the
heart’s normal rhythm.
• A, PR interval, representing conduction through the AV
node and the bundle of His.
• This should be between 120–200 ms, or less than 5 mm on
the ECG paper i.e 3 to 5 small squares.
An ECG complex is comprised of
• The QRS complex, representing depolarisation of the ventricles.
– A Q wave is any negative deflection at the beginning of a QRS complex.
– Small Q waves in some leads may be normal.
– Large Q waves (> 2 mm) may be abnormal.
– An R wave is the first positive deflection, and an S wave is the negative
deflection immediately following an R wave.
– The QRS complex should be less than [0.12 sec or 120 ms, (3 mm)]
i.e 3 smallest squares.
• The ST segment, between the end of the S wave and start of the T wave.
– The ST segment should be ‘isoelectric’, that is, at the same level as the part
between the T wave and the next P wave(TP Segment).

Anterior Wall
Ø Anterior wall infarctions may be subdivided into
Ø Strictly anterior:
Ø Strictly anterior infarction causes diagnostic changes in V 3
and V4.
Ø Anteroseptal:
Ø Anteroseptal infarction results in loss of the normal small
septal R waves in leads V1 and V2 as well as diagnostic
changes in leads V3 and V4.
Ø Anterolateral infarctions:
Ø Anterolateral infarction results in changes in more laterally
situated chest leads (V5, V6) and the left lateral limb leads (I,
aVL), as well as the anterior leads V3 and V4.
