Recommendations for measurement standards in quantitative electrocardiography. The CSE Working Party
Abstract:
A set of recommendations aimed at standardizing measurements in quantitative electrocardiography is presented. It is the result of studies based on a measurement reference library analysed independently by a group of cardiologists and by various computer programs, and of discussions held at several meetings of the CSE Working Party. The nomenclature and definitions previously established by various Committees of the American Heart Association have been updated. An evaluation method has been proposed for testing the results of wave recognition computer programs analysing XYZ or 12-lead ECGs in groups of three simultaneously recorded leads, and recommendations have been formulated for minimum wave requirements, amplitude and interval measurement procedures.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.

Components of the Electrocardiogram
The primary components of a normal ECG waveform in Normal sinus rhythm(NSR) include the P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, ST segment, T wave, and occasionally a U wave.
ECG waveforms are divided by vertical and horizontal lines at standard intervals.
The horizontal axis measures time and rate, and the vertical axis measures amplitude or voltage....
