Answer» Correct Answer - B A normal electrocardiogram (ECG) is composed of P wave, a QRS wave (complex) and a T wave. The ECGs obtained from different individuals have roughly the same shape and any deviation from this shape indicates a possible abnormality or disease. For example, the enlarged Q and R wave indicate a myocardial infraction (heart attack), enlargement of the P wave indicates enlargement of the atria. T wave is flat when the heart muscles receive insufficient oxygen as in atherosclerotic heart disease. |
