Electrocardiograms (ECG), also known as EKGs, are powerful tools for analyzing the electrical activity of the heart. A typical ECG displays a series of rhythmic waves and segments that depict the heart's beat. Each wave and segment corresponds with a specific phase in the cardiac sequence. However, deviances in these patterns can signal underlying
Decoding ECG Patterns: A Guide to Arrhythmias
Understanding electrocardiogram (ECG) patterns is crucial for identifying arrhythmias. These irregular heart rhythms can manifest in a variety of ways, each with its own unique signature on the ECG tracing. A skilled healthcare professional can decode these patterns to classify the specific type of arrhythmia present. Common types include ventricul
