Nilai Normal :

Interval PR 0,12’’ s/d 0,20’’

Durasi QRS 0,04’’ s/d 0,12’’

Aksis Normal - 300 s/d + 1100

1. RATE

Normal heart rate : 60 – 100 x/minutes• > 100 x/minutes : Sinus Tachycardia• < 60 x/minutes : Sinus Bradicardia

Determination heart rate (normal paper speed 25 mm/s):

• 300

Count number of large square (bold boxes in one R – R’ interval)

• 1500

Count number of small square in one R – R’ intervals

• Number of QRS complex in 6 seconds, multiply by 10

2. RHYTHM

Normal cardiac rhythm : SINUS rhythm

Sinus rhythm characteristics :• Rate 60-100 bpm• Constant R – R’ interval• Negative P wave in aVR and positive di II• P wave is always followed by QRS complex

3. AXIS

4. HYPERTROPHIC SIGNS

5. MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Ischemia Injury Necrosis

ANTERIOR INFARCTION

INFERIOR INFARCTION

POSTEROLATERAL INFARCTION

ARRHYTHMIA

AV BLOCK

WHAT’S WRONG??Lead Error: V1 and V3 are Transposed!In this normal 12-lead ECG the V1 and V3 chest electrodes are interchanged. Experienced ECG interpreters should be able to spot this lead placement error.
