Case Report: Multiple types of arrhythmias in a late-confirmed Danon disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities can be found in almost all patients, with Wolff–Parkinson–White (WPW) syndrome being the most common. However, many patients may not present the typical presentation, especially in the early stage. She denied any family history of cardiovascular disease or sudden death.

Cardiomatics guide: Analyzing arrhythmias made easy

Cardiomatics

In a world where technology reigns supreme, one of the most profound tools in medicine remains the irreplaceable electrocardiogram (ECG). AFIB/AFL – atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter episodes. An abnormal electrocardiogram can mean many things.

LAFB, atrial flutter, anterolateral STEMI(+) OMI. Fragmentation and artifact ( and possibly already in the inferior leads, the Atrial Flutter pointed out by Dr. Meyers that became obvious in the repeat ECG ) combine to make assessment of ST-T wave changes on many of the leads in ECG #1 difficult.

MP-470548-004 PERFORMANCE AND INTEROPERABILITY OF A VECTORCARDIOGRAM DEEP LEARNING ALGORITHM TO DETECT ATRIAL FLUTTER COMPARED TO ELECTROCARDIOGRAM ANALYSIS BY ELECTROPHYSIOLOGISTS

HeartRhythm

It is unclear how deep learning applied to VCG compares to physicians (EPs) for atrial flutter (AFL) detection. The representation of ECG vectors in X, Y, and Z axes in a vectorcardiogram (VCG) has shown diagnostic promise beyond single lead ECG (SL) analysis, with implications for novel ECG acquisition technologies.

HeartBeam Presents Positive Results on its Artificial Intelligence Capabilities for Detecting Arrhythmias

DAIC

In the study, HeartBeam AI with VCG demonstrated a 28% improvement over single-lead ECG in the detection of atrial flutter cases (sensitivity of 91.0% for single-lead ECG) without sacrificing the ability to identify those individuals without atrial flutter (specificity of 98.7% for VCG vs. 71.2% for VCG vs. 96.9%

Atrial fibrillation? Multifocal Atrial Tachycardia? Don't look at computer read until AFTER you interpret!

Here is an example where the computer failed to diagnose atrial fibrillation, with disastrous consequences: Computer often fails to diagnose atrial fibrillation in ventricular paced rhythm, and that can be catastrophic Smith SW et al.

Emergency Department Syncope Workup: After H and P, ECG is the Only Test Required for Every Patient.

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG): Defined (San Fran syncope rule) as any new changes when compared to the last ECG or presence of non-sinus rhythm. Results : Electrocardiograms (99%), telemetry (95%), cardiac enzymes (95%), and head computed tomography (CT) (63%) were the most frequently obtained tests.
