Should we go on with this one? Anyone?

Hypertrophy??? I don't see it. Hypertrophy is a pathology of the heart. A sportive young person with a bigger heartmuscle doesn't have a pathology of the heart? When hypertrophy is suspected, a heartecho must be made to confirm a hypertrophy.

Because it's getting quiet here, should i post a new EKG? Yeah! why not.... Here is a new one!! Is there a problem, and what is the problem?

Forgotten to write that in my conclusion... Was that the only problem? What about the Q's?

1 Heartrate: 90bpm 2 Rythm: P followed by QRS, so sinusrythm 3 P looks very large in all leads... Different shapes in the various leads... 4 PQ is not larger than 0,2 sec so normal. QRS <0,12 sec. 5 Axis: I more negative, aVF more positive... right axis deviation 6 Hypertrophy: P in V1...

Missing V4-V6... can you post thos missing leads? 1 Heartrate: 90bpm 2 Rythm: P followed by QRS, so sinusrythm 3 P looks very large in all leads... Different shapes in the various leads... 4 PQ is not larger than 0,2 sec so normal. QRS <0,12 sec. 5 Axis: I more negative, aVF more...

It is a sinusrythm, about 60 bpm. The ST's in V2 and V3 in this case were'not significant for diagnose of any MI. Heartaxis is normal and there is no significant Q in the ECG. Again a normal ECG belonging to this specific (sportive, young) person.

Well, good information!!! Sheet 4 tells also something interesting: "Of 123 adult chestpain patiënts with ST segment elevation equal or >1mm, 51% did not have myocardial infarctions. 21% LBBB and 33% LVH"... Sheet 5 tells more reasons for ST elevation, for example Benign early repolarization...

When the ST elevation / depression is the only sign pointing to a possible MI, that means no Q's, no typical complains (chestpain) or other signs/symptoms, then the elevation or depression must be 2mm or more... 0,5 or 1mm elevation/depression are mostly insignificant. The patiënt monitors I...

A new one... Okay, ECG number 3: A young male, 26years... Any problems on this one?

1. Heartrate: about 75 bpm 2. Rhytm: regullar 3. P's are looking the same. negative in V1. P's followed by a QRS. 4. PQ time is normal, QRS time doubts me. Looks a little wide, BBB?... The R's don't show up very well... 5. Heartaxis: I = positive and aVF negative : left axis deviation. 6...

Correct... I guess i translated it a little wrong

The EKG I posted was a totally normal EKG. It's made on myself by the cardiologist during a cardiologyclass.

At this EKG the R is very small in V1 and V2, and a deep S. But that's normal. I have a standard procedure to look at EKG's, in hope to catch all information out of it. 1. Frequency 2. Rhytm: is it regullar or irregular 3. P's: yes/no, are they looking the same? P's followed correctly by a...

1mm ST-elevation mostly isn't significant... mostly... I personally never make a MI out of this when it's the only sign i've got...

Okay, just a little information extra at this ECG: male, 28 years, no history, no med's.

10 points for TomB! Conclusion: P tops followed by a QRS complex, so it's a sinusrythm. PQ-time, well what can we say about it? Frequenty about 85bpm Axis: I = mainly positive, aVF = positive, so it's a left axis deviation. QRS: it seems wide, but is it BBB? No, let's look to the QRS...

A Dutch forum does this since a while, and it's actualy fun to do, but above all: It's always interesting to do and you can learn from eachother!! I'll start with the post of an EKG. Everybody can interpretate on it here. Who joins? Okay here it is. The first: Well, what do we got...

boring to watch, even more boring to listen to.

Yeah! And we didn't even talk about the paddles placed wrong...
