ECG Simple Approach
How to Interpret an ECG
in 7 Steps
Step 1: Heart Rate
Step 2: Heart Rhythm
Step 3: Electrical Heart AXIS
Step 4: The PR Interval
Step 5: The QRS Complex
Step 6: Repolarization ST-T
Step 7: The R/S Ratio
1-Heart Rate
Before you
start
Look at speed
25 mm/s.
Caliper & speed
RATE
Rule of 300
Sinus Tachycardia

Normal Sinus Rhythm with HR > 100
Management : treat the cause.
Supraventricular Tachycardia ( SVT )
• Regular , HR > 150 !!
• No P or retrograde P
Management :
1- Cardioversion ( DC, Medical )
3- Radiofrequency ablation.
Atrial flutter
• Regular + saw tooth P wave
• may be irregular if there is variable block in AV node
Management : ( like AF, transient rhythm )
1- Cardioversion ( medical , electrical )
2- Rate control ( BB, CCB , Digoxin )
3- Anticoagulation
Ventricular Tachycardia ( VT, V Tach )
HR > 100 , Wide QRS > 3 small , AV
dissociation
Sustained VT : run of more than 30 s
Non-sustained VT : run of less than 30 s
Management :
Cardioversion :
1- DC cardioversion.
2- Medical ( Amiodarone, Lidocain )
2-Heart Rhythm
Rhythm

Regular OR irregular
Pen & Paper
3- AXIS
4-The PR Interval
PR Interval
Normal: 0.12 - 0.20 seconds
(3 to 5 small boxes)
5-The QRS Complex
Left Ventricular Enlargement
R ( in V5 or V6 )
> 35 ss (7 large
large)
+ Lt axis
S ( in V1 or V2 )
+
Right Ventricular Enlargement
R > S in
V1
S > R in
V6
+ Rt axis
RVH with Strain
QRS duration
Normal: 0.04 - ≤ 0.10 seconds.
( ≤ 2.5 boxes)
Bundle Branch Block
Simple method
Wide QRS complex---- BBB
Look to V1
If mainly +ve complex R ------- RBBB
If mainly -ve complex ---------- LBBB
Remember

if V1 is +ve

Some thing Right

RBBB or RVH
6- Repolarization ST-T
Myocardial
Ischemia
and
Infarction
ST SEGMENT
Ischemic ECG Changes
• ST segment elevation.
• ST segment depression.
• T wave flatting and inversion.
• Pathological Q wave.
Stages of STEMI
1- Hyperacute T wave : Tall broad T wave.
2- ST segment elevation.
3- Q wave formation ( may occur early ) .
then T wave inversion & and ST Normalization.
1 2
3
R wave
progression
7-The R/S Ratio
Simply at the end
don’t small us in front of
profs
Remember
Men are parkings
