    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Medical Instrumentation

    Background:

    • Assessing cardiac rhythm regularity is crucial in electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation.
    • Detecting P wave presence and pattern aids in diagnosing arrhythmias.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a simple scale for evaluating RR interval regularity on ECGs.
    • To introduce a method for detecting P wave trains using the proposed scale.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a straightforward visual scale for ECG analysis.
    • Application of the scale to assess RR (or PP) interval regularity.
    • Utilizing the scale to identify P wave trains.

    Main Results:

    • The presented scale allows for straightforward assessment of RR interval regularity.
  • The scale facilitates the detection of P wave trains in ECG readings.
  • Conclusions:

    • The developed scale is a simple and effective tool for ECG readers.
    • This scale aids in the routine assessment of cardiac rhythm and P wave activity.
