ECG Basic Principles (Cardiac Cycle, Electrical Conduction, Electrodes and Leads) made easy!

Anyone can learn to read an ECG, it's not as complicated as you've probably been led to believe!
This short animated video covers the basic principles using simple vocabulary and easy-to-follow animations. Includes the underlying principles of;
-the cardiac cycle,
-how electricity is conducted through the heart,
-how we can observe this flow of electricity using electrodes and ECG leads,
-what do the 'p waves', 'QRS complexes', etc. on an ECG trace actually mean?

Many thanks, thats very kind :) thanks for the support!

There is a reduced flow of electricity from the left ventricle to the right ventricle going away from the eye thereby producing that sharp curve which is the Q.

Very got and sm better understanding. Thank you!

DDD pacing at the end?

[@thehumanbodyoversimplified5381]

correct- you can see both Arial and ventricle pacing spikes. Well done ;)
