| !Characteristics of a normal ECG
| |
| |-
| |
| |
| |
| * '''[[Rhythm]]''': [[Sinus node rhythms and arrhythmias|sinus]]
| |
| * '''[[Rate]]''': 60-100 bpm
| |
| * '''[[Conduction]]''':
| |
| ** [[Conduction#The PQ interval|PQ interval]] 120-200ms
| |
| ** [[Conduction#The QRS interval|QRS width]] 60-100ms
| |
| ** [[Conduction#The QT interval|QTc interval]] 390-450ms (use the [[QTc calculator]] for this)
| |
| * '''[[Heart axis]]''': between -30 and +90 degrees
| |
| * '''[[P wave morphology]]''':
| |
| ** The maximal height of the P wave is 2.5 mm in leads II and / or III
| |
| ** The p wave is positive in II and AVF, and biphasic in V1
| |
| ** The p wave duration is usually shorter than 0.12 seconds
| |
| * '''[[QRS morphology]]''':
| |
| **No [[Q waves|pathological Q waves]]
| |
| **No left or right ventricular [[hypertrophy]]
| |
| **No [[microvoltage]]
| |
| **Normal R wave propagation. (R waves increase in amplitude from V1-V5)
| |
| * '''[[ST morphology]]'''
| |
| **No [[ST morphology|ST elevation or depression]]
| |
| **T waves should be [[ST morphology|concordant with the QRS complex]]
| |
| | |
| * The ECG should not have changed from the previous ECG
