An EKG/ECG uses electrical signals to check for abnormalities in heartbeats. It measures the depolarization and repolarization of the heart which causes contraction and returns to resting potential. The EKG printout labels the P wave, QRS complex, and T wave which correspond to atrial depolarization, ventricular depolarization and repolarization, and atrial repolarization.

2. The German abbreviation 3. A test that uses electrical signals for checking heartbeats for abnormalities 4. Depolarization causes contraction and occurs when sodium channels open and repolarization returns it to resting potential 5. Depolarization is more positive, repolarization is more negative 6. R P wave T wave
