category item
Normal tracing
Normal ECG
Technical Problems
Leads misplaced
Artifacts

Sinus bradycardia (<50 beats per minute)
Sinus arrest or pause
Sino-atrial exit block
Other Supraventricular Rhythms
Atrial premature complexes
Atrial premature complexes, nonconducted
Ectopic atrial rhythm
Atrial fibrillation
Atrial flutter
Junctional premature complexes
Supraventricular tachycardia, paroxysmal
Ventricular Arrhythmias
Ventricular premature complexes
Ventricular escape complexes or rhythm
Accelerated idioventricular rhythm
Ventricular tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia, polymorphous (including torsade de pointes)
Ventricular fibrillation
Genetic Arrhythmias
Long QT syndrome
Brugada syndrome
Arrythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy
Catecholamin Induced Ventricular Tachycardia
Atrial Ventricular Conduction
First-degree AV block
Mobitz Type 1 second-degree AV block (Wenckebach)
Mobitz Type 2 second-degree AV block
AV block or conduction ratio, 2:1
AV block, varying conduction ratio
AV block, advanced (high-grade)
AV block, complete (third-degree)
AV dissociation
Intraventricular Conduction
Left bundle branch block (fixed or intermittent)
Right bundle branch block (fixed or intermittent, complete or incomplete)
Intraventricular conduction delay, nonspecific
Aberrant conduction of supraventricular beats
Left anterior fascicular block
Left posterior fascicular block
Ventricular pre-excitation (Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern)
QRS axis and voltage
Right axis deviation (+90 to +180 degrees)
Left axis deviation (-30 to -90 degrees)
Indeterminate axis
Electrical alternans
Low voltage (less than 0.5 mV total QRS amplitude in each extremity lead and less than 1.0 mV in each Precordial lead)
Chamber Hypertrophy and Enlargment
Left atrial enlargement, abnormality, or conduction defect
Right atrial abnormality
Left ventricular hypertrophy (QRS abnormality only)
Left ventricular hypertrophy with secondary ST-T abnormality
