Abnormal ECG Findings in Athletes: Clinical Evaluation and Considerations. [PDF]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Pre-participation cardiovascular evaluation with electrocardiography is normal practice for most sporting bodies. Awareness about sudden cardiac death in athletes and recognizing how screening can help identify vulnerable athletes have

Continuously Tested and Used QRS Detection Algorithm: Free Access to the MATLAB Code [PDF]
Each ECG analysis begins with the detection of the QRS complex, which is the most distinguishable wave for initial investigation. Long ago we published an algorithm for ventricular beats (VB) detection in single ECG lead. The classification of normal QRS

Mechanical suppression of premature ventricular complexes during catheter ablation procedures
Introduction: Mechanical suppression of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) is not a well-known observation. We retrospectively reviewed this phenomenon in the Ventricular Arrhythmia (VA) ablation procedures performed at Richard L.

R-from-T as a common mechanism of arrhythmia initiation in long QT syndromes [PDF]
Background: Long QT syndromes (LQTS) arise from many genetic and nongenetic causes with certain characteristic ECG features preceding polymorphic ventricular tachyarrhythmias (PVTs).

We report a rare case of dense mitral annular calcification in a 26-year-old male presenting with recurrent palpitation for the last year with a plethora of mitral annular premature ventricular complexes (PVCs).

Evaluation and Management of Premature Ventricular Complexes [PDF]
Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are extremely common, found in the majority of individuals undergoing long-term ambulatory monitoring. Increasing age, a taller height, a higher blood pressure, a history of heart disease, performance of less physical activity, and smoking each predict a greater PVC frequency.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM
ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe

Premature Ventricular Complex Causing Ice-Pick Headache [PDF]
Ice pick headache is a momentary, transient, repetitive headache disorder and manifests with the stabbing pains and jolts. The exact mechanism causing this disease is unknown. Premature ventricular contractions are early depolarization of the ventricular myocardium and in the absence of a structural heart disease, it is considered to be a benign ...
