Giant T Wave Inversion D
The genesis of the T wave of the electrocardiogram is ill understood. It represents ventricular repolarization, and is thus dependent on changes occurring at cell membrane level. It is the most labile component of the QRST complex and is affected by many physiol6gical, neuro-humoral, and physical factors in health, as well as being the most sensitive index of disease. One of the most interestin...
متن کاملGiant Precordial T Wave Inversion in a Patient with Gastroenteritis
Giant precordial T wave inversion (GPTI) on ECG may be the result of several pathologies, including myocardial ischemia, pulmonary edema, pulmonary embolism, subarachnoid hemorrhage, apical hypertrophy, and postpacing. We describe a case of a 75-year-old woman who developed GPTI after an episode of gastroenteritis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of this ECG pattern associated with g...
متن کاملGiant T-wave inversion in patients with acute coronary insufficiency.
We have observed an electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern of deep T-wave or "giant T wave" inversion in patients with acute coronary insufficiency. We reviewed the ECGs of 936 patients admitted to our coronary care unit during a one-year period. We found the pattern of giant T-wave inversion was present in nine patients (1 percent). We examined the echocardiograms of all of these patients and we a...
متن کاملChest pain with diffuse T-wave inversion.
A 45-year-old man presented with worsening left-sided, sharp pleuritic chest pain that began one week earlier. The pain started after a few days of dry coughing. It was initially located at the lateral chest wall, then spread to the midsubsternal area and the left axilla. The pain was associated with exertional shortness of breath and dizziness. The patient did not have fever, chills, sputum pr...
متن کاملPersistent giant U wave inversion with anoxic brain injury.
Various electrocardiographic changes have been reported in the setting of acute neurological events, among them large, upright U waves. In contrast, the occurrence of inverted U waves is strongly suggestive of cardiovascular disease, most commonly hypertension, coronary artery disease, or valvular abnormalities. Presented herein is the case of a 29-year-old man with previous anoxic brain injury...
