The electrocardiogram of Macaca fascicularis.

Electrocardiograms from 16 male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) were studied. Standard and augmented limb leads (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF) were obtained with the animals restrained in a sitting position. Normal electrocardiographic parameters were determined, including PR and QT intervals; P, QRS, and T wave axes; P and QRS wave widths. Voltages in all standard and augmented limb leads were lower than previously reported for similar size monkeys.
