To assess the prevalence of physiological variations & abnormal changes 100 electrocardiograms were recorded of asymptomatic late adolescents (16-19years). This suggests that physiological variations have basis of alterations in the electrochemical processes occurring during various phases of cardiac cycle.This electrocardiograms were analysed for all waves, intervals, heart rate. There was presence ofearly repolarization syndrome, persistent juvenile pattern, sinus arrhythmia, nonspecific T wave changes. Also with this abnormal recording of right atrial hypertrophy was noted.
