Predicting “Heart Age” Using Electrocardiography
Knowledge of a patient's cardiac age, or "heart age", could prove useful to both patients and physicians for better encouraging lifestyle changes potentially beneficial for cardiovascular health. This may be particularly true for patients who exhibit symptoms but who test negative for cardiac pathology. We developed a statistical model, using a Bayesian approach, that predicts an individual's h...
متن کاملElectrocardiography in Chagas' heart disease.
Conventional ECG still plays an important role in the overall knowledge of Chagas' cardiopathy, because of its importance in longitudinal and epidemiological studies, its diagnostic value, and its utility in prognostic evaluation. The authors discuss these aspects, as well as the use of eCG in the acute phase and the significance of a normal ECG in Chagas' disease. Correlations were made betwee...
متن کاملThe utilization of twelve-lead electrocardiography for predicting sudden cardiac death after heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND Sudden cardiac death (SCD) occurs commonly after heart transplantation (HTX). The utilization of surface electrocardiography (ECG) to assess post-HTX SCD has not been investigated thoroughly. This study aimed to investigate the specific changes in surface ECG in HTX patients with SCD. METHODS A total of 227 HTX patients (age 48 ± 14 y/o, mean donor age 34 ± 14 y/o, 173 males) were ...

متن کاملHigh frequency electrocardiography in ischaemic heart disease.
Scalar electrocardiograms contain high frequency components which are not recorded with conventional electrocardiographic apparatus (Dower, 1964). The clinical value of these high frequency components has been questioned (Scher and Young, 1960), but there is evidence that they may be of help in the diagnosis of ischeemic heart disease (Langner, 1953). A study of the electrocardiogram in normal ...
