As a medical professional with expertise in cardiology, I can provide a detailed explanation of the TP interval. The
TP segment is the
isoelectric interval on the electrocardiogram (ECG). It is the region between the end of the T wave, which signifies the completion of ventricular repolarization or the electrical inactivation of the ventricles, and the next P wave, which indicates the beginning of atrial depolarization or the electrical activation of the atria. The TP interval
represents the time when the heart muscle cells are electrically silent, meaning there is no significant electrical activity detected on the ECG during this period. This interval is important for understanding the overall timing of the heart's electrical cycle and can be used to diagnose certain cardiac conditions.
