46b wave — in the electroretinogram, a high amplitude, positive deflection occurring immediately after the a wave and representing complex activity of the retinal bipolar layer …
47c wave — 1. in a tracing of the venous pulse, a small positive deflection representing the bulging back toward the atria of the tricuspid valve at the onset of ventricular contraction. See also illustration at pulse. 2. in the electroretinogram, the… …
48rapid filling wave — in the apexcardiogram, the steep positive deflection following the O point, or mitral valve opening, representing the period of rapid blood flow into the left ventricle. Its transition to the slow filling wave is marked by the third heart sound …
49slow filling wave — in the apexcardiogram, the shallow sloped positive deflection following the rapid filling wave; it represents continued, but slowed, blood flow into the left ventricle …
