Title: Electrocardiographic Early Repolarization:Progress and Puzzles
Abstract:Early repolarization(ER) is a common electrocardiographic(ECG) variant,defined as a ≥0.1 mV elevation of the QRS-ST junction manifesting as J-point slurring or notching in at least 2 contiguous leads....Early repolarization(ER) is a common electrocardiographic(ECG) variant,defined as a ≥0.1 mV elevation of the QRS-ST junction manifesting as J-point slurring or notching in at least 2 contiguous leads.It is a long-held belief that ER is a benign ECG variant with favorable prognosis.However,recent studies have highlighted that ER is potentially associated with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation or sudden cardiac death.This article is a review of progress made in defining and reconciling the ECG enigma in the clinic.Read More
