How to read and analyse the ECG reports?


Question:
The ECG report contains a lot of technical terms like QRS, PR, QT/QTC, etc. What does the terms mean and what are the limits?

Answers:
PR Interval. The interval between atrial contraction and ventricular contraction. It should be between 0.16 and 0.2 seconds.

QRS Complex. The 'squiggle' that denotes the electrical changes of ventricular contraction. It should be narrow, not broad, it should be of a normal shape

QT Interval. The interval between depolorisation of the the ventricles and repolorisation of the ventricles. It should be between 0.3 and 0.44 seconds. QTc is the QT interval corrected for heart rate, it's not normally used all that much.
