Which part of the ECG represents depolarization of the ventricles?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking which component of an electrocardiogram (ECG) reflects the depolarization process occurring in the ventricles of the heart. This involves understanding the electrical activity of the heart as represented in an ECG trace.

Answer

QRS complex

The QRS complex represents the depolarization of the ventricles.

Answer for screen readers

The QRS complex represents the depolarization of the ventricles.

More Information

The QRS complex is one of the most important components of an ECG as it indicates the activation of the main pumping chambers of the heart.

Tips

Common mistakes include confusing the QRS complex with other parts of the ECG such as the P wave, which represents atrial depolarization.
