4 lut 2021 · The normal PR interval is between 120 – 200 ms (0.12-0.20s) in duration (three to five small squares). If the PR interval is > 200 ms, first degree heart block is said to be present. PR interval < 120 ms suggests pre-excitation (the presence of an accessory pathway between the atria and ventricles) or AV nodal (junctional) rhythm .

The P-wave, PR interval and PR segment. ECG interpretation traditionally starts with an assessment of the P-wave. The P-wave reflects atrial depolarization (activation). The PR interval is the distance between the onset of the P-wave to the onset of the QRS complex.
Normal PR interval: 0,12–0,22 seconds. Upper reference limit is 0,20 seconds in young adults. A prolonged PR interval (>0.22 s) is consistent with first-degree AV-block.
A normal PR interval ranges between 0.12 seconds to 0.22 seconds. The flat line between the end of the P-wave and the onset of the QRS complex is called the PR segment and it reflects the slow impulse conduction through the atrioventricular node.
In electrocardiography, the PR interval is the period, measured in milliseconds, that extends from the beginning of the P wave (the onset of atrial depolarization) until the beginning of the QRS complex (the onset of ventricular depolarization); it is normally between 120 and 200 ms in duration.
19 maj 2024 · In adults the normal PR interval is 0.12 s to 0.20 s (3 to 5 small squares). Normal PR interval (0.14 s). It is generally shorter in children (see pediatric EKG) and in pregnant women, and it is longer in older persons.
The PR interval is a measurement of the time it takes from the start of the p wave to the start of the QRS complex, typically 3-5 mm in duration. This interval is representative of the physiologic delay caused by transmission of impulses through the AV node.
