Calculating Heart Rate [HR] from an Electrokardiogram [EKG] (2)

The video tutorial explains how to interpret an electrocardiogram (ECG) by identifying the P wave, QRS complex, and T wave, which represent different electrical events of the heart. It demonstrates how to estimate a patient's heart rate by measuring the RR distance between QRS complexes on an ECG. The tutorial includes a practical example using a fictional ECG from the movie Spiderman to calculate the Green Goblin's heart rate, illustrating the process of measuring RR distance and performing the calculation.
