A member asked:
If an ecg tracing was at 20mm/sec paper speed and then the same ecg waves were put onto a 25mm/sec ecg paper would the qt look falsely longer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Odd question: EKG paper is EKG paper. The speed & sensitivity are marked on the paper by the machine as the tracing is generated.
