MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Which one of the following descriptions or statements about an electrocardio-
gram (ECG) is NOT correct?
A. It is a record of the voltage changes (as measured at the body surface) due
to the depolarisation of the muscle cells of the heart as it beats.
B. The potentials measured by the ECG electrodes are combined in various
ways to give 12 different ECGs.
C. The ECG consists of the electrical events that follow the depolarisation of
ventricles (PQR section), the depolarisation of atria (the S section) and the
repolarisation of the ventricles (the T section).
D. The value of the potential difference called “limb lead II” varies with time
to produce the familiar ECG trace – a graph of voltage vs time.
