Kelainan Sumbu QRS pada bidang frontal
Normal : -30o hingga +90o
Deviasi Ke Kiri (DSKi) : -30o hingga -90o
Deviasi Ke Kanan(DSKa) : +90o hingga -180o
Sumbu Superior : +180o hingga -90o
The Quadrant Approach
1. Examine the QRS complex in leads I and aVF to determine if they
are predominantly positive or predominantly negative. The
combination should place the axis into one of the 4 quadrants
below.
The Quadrant Approach
2. In the event that LAD is present, examine lead II to determine if
this deviation is pathologic. If the QRS in II is predominantly
positive, the LAD is non-pathologic (in other words, the axis is
normal). If it is predominantly negative, it is pathologic.
Quadrant Approach: Example 1
Rate? 40 bpm
Regularity? regular
P waves? no relation to QRS
PR interval? none
QRS duration? wide (> 0.12 s)
Interpretation? 3rd Degree AV Block

Trigeminy
Premature Junctional Contraction
Teaching Moment
Atrial tissue
Multiple micro re-
entrant wavelets
refers to wandering
small areas of
activation which
generate fine chaotic
impulses. Colliding
wavelets can, in turn,
generate new foci of
activation. For more presentations

Atrial Flutter
Atrial Tachycardia
Teaching Moment
A re-entrant
pathway occurs
when an impulse
loops and results
in self-
perpetuating
impulse
formation.

Hypertrophy
Right ventricular hypertrophy
To diagnose RVH you can use the following criteria:
Right axis deviation, and
V1 R wave > 7mm tall
A common
cause of RVH
is left heart
failure.
Hypertrophy
Left ventricular hypertrophy
Take a look at this ECG. What do you notice about the axis and QRS
complexes over the left ventricle (V5, V6) and right ventricle (V1, V2)?
