Ophthalmologists can play a pivotal role in detection and treatment of life-threatening disorders by recognizing syndromes associated with retinal tumors.

The P wave in the ECG represents atrial depolarization, which results in atrial contraction.
The P wave is a summation wave generated by the depolarization front as it transits the atria. Normally the right atrium depolarizes slightly earlier than left atrium since the depolarization wave originates in the sinoatrial node, in the high right atrium and then travels to and through the left atrium.
