Background In athletes, ECG changes from physiological cardiac remodelling are common but can overlap with findings from a pathological disorder. We compared ECG findings in a group of elite high ...

How often do you see an ECG that is just a little off? Maybe the T wave is flat, oddly-shaped or inverted. Maybe the ST segment is coved, very minimally-depressed or shows some J point elevation.

Sometimes, an abnormal EKG reading is a normal variation in a person’s heart rhythm. In other cases, it may be due to an underlying heart condition or a reaction to medication. An electrocardiogram ...

A new study has linked prolonged P-wave duration to increased risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD), independent of cardiovascular risk factors and atrial fibrillation. 1 This suggests P-wave duration ...

Primary repolarization abnormalities such as ST or T wave changes are associated with higher risk of CHD mortality; however, the prevalence of primary repolarization abnormalities is low and their ...

Communicating concerns about nonspecific changes on ECG Exercise caution when a patient presents with acute chest pain. The ability to explain the situation as clearly as possible is essential.

(HealthDay News) — Depression and anxiety are independently, yet oppositely, associated with electrocardiographic (ECG) T-wave inversions, according to a study published in the December 15 issue of ...
