This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Rule of thumb

Look at lead I and Lead aVF

if qrs complex is reaching each other it is right axis( RAD) R- reaching

? lead I
? aVF

if qrs is leaving each other it is left axis deviation (LAD)- L- leaving

?Lead I
? aVF
