    This document discusses an experiment to record an electrocardiogram (ECG) from a subject and listen to their heart sounds. It aims to examine the relationship between the electrical activity recorded by the ECG and the characteristic "lub-dub" sounds of the heart. The materials and methods section lists the equipment needed, including an ECG machine, leads, electrode paste, and cleaning supplies. Review questions at the end ask about how QRS readings would appear in cases of tachycardia or arrhythmias.

    Electrocardiogram (ECG) and heart sounds
    : Inroduction
    In this lab you will record the ECG from a subject and listen to the-
    characteristic “lub-dub” heart sounds. The “lub” sound occurs during
    the early phase of ventricular contraction and is produced by closing of
    .the atrioventricular valves, which prevents blood flow into the atria

    The beating of the heart is associated with both electrical activity and -
    sound. The pattern of electrical activity recorded at the body surface is
    called the electrocardiogram or ECG. The aim of this laboratory is for
    you to record and analyze an ECG from a volunteer, and to examine
    the relationship between the ECG and the characteristic sounds of the
    .heart

    :Aims •
    .Routine screening of cardiac pathologies.1
    .Immediate assessment of patients suffering from chest pain-2 •
    To diagnose the presence of heart diseases (myocardial infarction and-3 •
    . cardiac dysrhythmias)
    4-To diagnose the presence of cardiac enlargement and size of the cardiac
    chambers.
    5-To evaluate the effect of therapeutic interventions on the heart (drugs,
    fluid, and mechanical support).

    Review questions
    ?In case of tachycardia, how will be QRS reading-
    Ventricular heart rhythm disturbances can be diagnosed by an electrocardiogram (ECG)
    device, and can also be estimated (the sum of the early ventricular impulses in a specific
    period of time, usually for a period of 24 hours) and characteristic (from one focus or
    foci, from the right ventricle or from the ventricle). Left, single pulses only or in twin
    forms (Bigeminal, binary), by the ECM
    ?In case of arrythmias, how will be QRS reading -
    These variations in heart rhythm can manifest as an acceleration or slowdown in the
    heart rate, and their symptoms may appear as an irregular heartbeat, or as palpitations.
    Arrhythmias differ among themselves in their importance and danger to the patient's
    life, some of which are considered a manifestation of diversity with no satisfactory
    value, and some of them constitute a threat to the patient's life, or a disease that must be
    .treated
