Electrocardiogram of the clinically normal, ketamine-sedated Macaca fascicularis

Electrocardiograms were obtained from 100 clinically normal cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) sedated with ketamine hydrochloride. Calculations were made for heart rates and mean electrical axes (frontal, sagittal, and transverse planes) as well as for amplitudes and/or intervals for P, PR, QRS, Q, R, S, and QT. Proposed ECG reference ranges are set forth for this species.
