A member asked:
I only have a few p waves that can be seen on my ecg what causes this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too many technologies for obtaining an EKG tracing nowadays and most of them are not standardized for a correct reading. Your question is only valid if you had a 12 lead EKG done and you do not see the P wave before each QRS on most leads.
