Low voltage on an EKG is usually encountered in people with very thick chest walls or with lung diseases. Low voltage results from increased impedance between the EKG leads (on the chest) and the source of the charge (the heart). Increased distance, poorly conducting tissue or air all increase the impedance, thus resulting in decreased voltage visible on the EKG.

How much voltage in a heart defibrillator?
600V
How does a slow heart beat assist in hibernation?
Low metabolic rate (hibernation) requires low O2 consumption, which requires low cardiac output, which results in low heart rate.
What does it mean to have a low heart rate and high blood pressure?
A complication of a low heart rate or "Bradycardia" is high blood pressure.
Does bass effect for heart?
There is no evidence that low frequency sounds affect the heart.
How many volts can stop a heart?
The voltage that can stop a heart varies from one person to another depending with how healthy that person is. On average, 30 volts is enough to stop a heart.
What does low voltage frontal leads mean in an EKG?
more than likely misplacement of the electrodes, but low voltage could also indicate a small heart or perhaps a heart that isn't pumping very strongly.
Is it true that a low voltage system cannot harm you?
Yes... unless you opened your chest and applied the low voltage directly to your heart (which would be totally stupid).
How many volt in low voltage?
There are three main categories of low voltage. It depends on what type of system the voltage belongs to, as each system has a bottom end or low voltage assigned to it.
