CORRESPONDENSE BETWEEN NORMS OF ECG INTERVALS AND AGE IN CHILDREN

Abstract

Strong correlation between characteristic features of norms ECG intervals and age and gender of children has been established due to the process of growth and development. These findings should be regarded in functional identification of heart conduction disorders. The ECG waves and intervals become stable at an age of 13–14 years due to the maturity of heart conduction system.

Key words: cardio-vascular system, functional diagnostics, ECG time intervals, growth and development.
