Mar 4, 2023 · The standard ECG is recorded at a speed of 25mm/sec and gain of 10mm/mV. A normal ECG trace includes a P wave, a QRS complex and a T wave. A standard 12-lead ECG includes bipolar limb leads, unipolar limb leads and chest leads. Electrical potential difference is measured between two limb electrodes.

An electrocardiogram is a tracing of the electrical activity that is taking place within the heart. Under normal circumstances, an electrical impulse will travel from the sinoatrial node, spread across the atrium, to the atrioventricular node and through the ventricular septum of the heart.
