In this video, you’ll learn about the ST segment, T wave, and U wave.
-ST segment – represents the completion of ventricular depolarization and the beginning of ventricular repolarization, and it should be flat (isoelectric).
-T wave – Represents the beginning of ventricular repolarization (relaxation).
-U wave – This wave sometimes appears after a T wave, but it doesn’t appear in all patients.
