Abstract:
Study of 6 peripheral channels of ECG in 62 children of the ages 9, 12, 14 showed that the heart frequency decreases with increasing age. In a same age, the frequency is higher in girl than in boy. Alpha angle valne decreases with increasing age. The electrocardiogram axis trends to move from right to left side, in contrary with the clock hand movement. Average duration of wave depends on the heart frequency. The altitude of wave of these three age groups has not significant difference
