Decoding ECG Patterns: Identifying Arrhythmias

Electrocardiograms (ECG), also designated 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 illustrate the heart's beat. Each wave and segment corresponds with a specific stage in the cardiac process. However, irregularities in these patterns can sign

Decoding ECG Patterns: A Guide to Arrhythmias

Understanding electrocardiogram (ECG) patterns is crucial for identifying arrhythmias. These irregular heart rhythms can manifest in a number of ways, each with its own unique pattern on the ECG tracing. A skilled cardiologist can analyze these patterns to identify the specific type of arrhythmia present. Common types include atrial fibrillation, e
