The right V1 lead show an RSR pattern but the QRS complex is less than 0.12 sec. making it an incomplete right bundle branch block. The R waves in the left chest leads of I, V5, V6 demonstrate normal activation of the left ventricle while the deep S wave demonstrates slower activation of the right ventricle.
2.
In lead I the tall wide broad R wave is characteristic of a left bundle branch block. As the impulse travels away from the positive electrode of lead I it causes an initial negative Q wave. After activation of the right ventricle, the electrical impulse travels from right to left across the myocardium and back towards the positive electrode and produces the positive R wave.
3.
Lead V1 shows and RSR pattern with a QRS complex greater than 0.12 sec. The movement of the impulse it initially toward the positive electrode of V1 and produces the initial R wave. As the current moves away from V1 to depolarize the left ventricle, an S wave is produced. As the current flows from left the left ventricle into the right ventricle and towards the positive electrode of V1, a second, broader,R wave is inscribed.
4.
Lead 1 is a left chest lead that shows a monophasic R wave with a broad QRS complex over 0.12 sec. In V5 and V6, the initial R wave represents activation of the right ventricle but as the electrical impulse travels from right to left across the myocardium, the deep S wave is produced.
5.
Lead 1 is a left chest lead that shows a broad, notched R wave with a QRS complex over 0.12 sec.
6.
The broadened RSR pattern in V1 makes this a right bundle branch block
7.
There is an RSR pattern to the QRS complex of V1. The second R wave is very broad and is followed by a deep, slurred S wave revealing the delayed right ventricular activation. There is also a 1st degree AV block present.
