The ability to identify an abnormality on the 12-lead ECG, suggestive of underlying cardiac disease associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD), is based on a sound working knowledge of the normal ECG ...

The goal of ECG interpretation in athletes is to classify the ECG as: (1) ‘normal’—no further evaluation needed or (2) ‘abnormal’—further evaluation needed. Normal ECGs include common, ...

In general, the normal QT interval is below 400 to 440 milliseconds (ms), or 0.4 to 0.44 seconds. Women have a longer QT interval than men. Lower heart rates also result in a longer QT interval.

She returns for a follow-up visit for palpitations, and a 12-lead ECG is obtained. The rhythm is regular, at a rate of 150 beats/min. The QRS complex duration is normal (0.08 sec) with normal ...

An electrocardiogram is a picture of the electrical conduction of the heart. By examining changes from normal on the ECG, clinicians can identify a multitude of cardiac disease processes.

there are a variety of atypical ECG patterns, often called 'normal variants', that can occur in perfectly normal individuals. SCD is most often due to an extremely rapid and uncoordinated cardiac ...

A new AI model can flag female patients who are at higher risk of heart disease based on an electrocardiogram (ECG). A new AI model can flag female patients who are at higher risk of heart disease ...

The analysis found that compared with the normal aging group, based on ECG-age, those ... analyzed 63,800 participants (average age 65, 52% women) from August 2023 to July 2024.

The resting electrocardiogram (ECG) furnishes essential information for the diagnosis, management, and prognostic evaluation of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Almost any ECG ...

An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart and is one of the most common medical tests in the world. In their study, the researchers used artificial intelligence to analyze over 1 million ...
