The Double U Wave—Should the Electrocardiogram be Interpreted Echocardiographically?
UNLABELLED The U wave is still an electrocardiographic deflection of enigmatic origin. Numerous hypotheses on its origin have been formulated, but to date none has been conclusively proven. Recently, a report described the first case of bifid (or notched) U waves. Until then this phenomenon has only been described in the T wave. This is the first report of double U waves-two separate deflection...
متن کاملHow should prostate specific antigen be interpreted?
Since from its clinical introduction to the present time, measurement of serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) level is one of the most widely used tests in urology practice. Initially, the upper limit for PSA was 4 ng/mL, but today, a reduction for the upper limit is recommended to 2.5-3 ng/mL for patients between 60 and 65 years of age and younger. On the use of PSA as a screening test for pr...
متن کاملThe Shortest QRS Duration of an Electrocardiogram Might Be an Optimal Electrocardiographic Predictor for Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy.
QRS duration has been associated with the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). However, the methods for defining QRS duration to predict the outcome of CRT have discrepancies in previous reports. The aim of this study was to determine an optimal measurement of QRS duration to predict the response to CRT.Sixty-one patients who received CRT were analyzed. All patients had class II...
متن کاملElectrocardiogram: his bundle potentials can be recorded noninvasively beat by beat on surface electrocardiogram
BACKGROUND The micro waveform of His bundle potential can't be recorded beat-to-beat on surface electrocardiogram yet. We have found that the micro-wavelets before QRS complex may be related to atrioventricular conduction system potentials. This study is to explore the possibility of His bundle potential can be noninvasively recorded on surface electrocardiogram. METHODS We randomized 65 pati...
متن کاملCanonical Correlation Clarified by Singular Value Decomposition
You want to find a linear combination of the x coordinates that correlates well over the data with an (in general, different) linear combination of the y coordinates. In fact, you want to find the best such matched pair of linear combinations on the x and y sides, that is, the one yielding the largest coefficient of correlation. But why stop there? Once you have the best pair, you can ask for t...
