Although the electrocardiograph (ECG) was invented more than 100 years ago, it remains the most commonly used test in clinical medicine. It is easy to perform, relatively cheap, and results are readily available. Interpretation, however, needs expertise and knowledge. New data, phenomenon, and syndromes are continually discovered by the ECG. It is important to differentiate between normal and abnormal ECGs first and then try to correlate the findings with clinical pathologies. Furthermore, the ECG is an integral part of the screening model for a variety of conditions such as channelopathies, athletes, preoperative risk profile, and remains the cardiologist's best friend.
尽管心电图(ECG)在100多年前就已发明,但它仍是临床医学中最常用的检查方法。它操作简便,成本相对较低,且结果易于获取。然而,解读需要专业知识。心电图不断发现新的数据、现象和综合征。首先区分正常和异常心电图,然后尝试将检查结果与临床病理联系起来很重要。此外,心电图是多种疾病筛查模型的重要组成部分,如离子通道病、运动员、术前风险评估等,并且仍然是心脏病专家的得力助手。
