Abnormal P waves
The PR interval
1. The PR interval measures the time required for an
abnormal
3. S wave
0.19 s
7. The axis of QRS complex
• Normal axis: between –30 degrees and +90
degrees
• Right axis deviation (RAD): between +90
degrees and ± 180 degrees
• Left axis deviation (LAD): between –30
degrees and –120 degrees
Right axis deviation (RAD)
Left axis deviation (LAD)
Morphology of the ST
segment
1. The ST segment represents the period during
which the ventricular myocardium remains in an
activated or depolarized state
2. ST segment normally located at the same
horizontal level with the PR segment
3. Normal variations:
• Slight upsloping, downsloping, or horizontal
depresion
• Early repolarization: displacement of ST
segment by as much as 0.1 mV in the direction of
the ensuing T wave
4. ST segment may be altered when there is
prolonged QRS complex
Normal ST segment
Normal ST-segment deviation

U waves
