QRS is the ECG wave produced by the spread of electrical excitation through the ventricular muscle.
In an electrocardiogram, the P wave marks atrial depolarisation, the QRS complex marks ventricular depolarisation (the tall R peak with the small preceding Q and following S deflections), and the T wave marks ventricular repolarisation. The QRS complex is large and sharp because the ventricles have a much greater muscle mass than the atria, and it is this e …
