Reference no: EM1395516

Today we learned about how the electrical signals are carried throughout your heart to create synchronous but separate contraction of the atria and ventricles. Using an ECG, we can monitor this electrical activity an determine if there are abnormalities with heart beat patterns. Using Figures 9-14 and 9-16 as a guide, describe what is happening during the following:
P-wave
PR segment
QRS complex
ST segment
T-wave
TP segment
Why could someone be in danger if they had a very short ST segment?
Would someone be in danger if they had a very long TP segment?
