  4. 2.1.0 P Wave

2.1.15

The chest leads from the other two patients whose frontal plane leads were shown earlier (pages 2.1.7 and 2.1.9) are shown here. They also demonstrate the characteristics of the normal P wave. The P wave is of lower amplitude in the ECG on the left than on the right, but in both, the biphasic nature of the P wave is seen in leads V1 and V2 and the progressive positivity is noted in leads V3 to V6.
