Importance of ECG in the Diagnosis of Acute Pericarditis and Myocardial Infarction: A Review Article

Abstract

A promising scientific field is health monitoring and associated technology. A standard testing method to evaluate and identify heart issues is the electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) and diagnose cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). E.C.G. monitoring technologies are becoming more and more prevalent in publications at an exponential rate. E.C.G. is the most crucial tool for screening cardiology and other medical specialities. Twelve leads can be recorded by traditional E.C.G. equipment, while current E.C.G. systems allow for extra leads also with fewer electrodes. Furthermore, “smart” gadgets allow patients to take an E.C.G. at residence. Presenting different ischemia-related symptoms on the E.C.G. by the most recent recommendations. Presentation of contemporary E.C.G. systems and their possible benefit in identifying ischemia-related E.C.G. symptoms based on recent study findings. The identification of ischemia E.C.G. abnormalities can be facilitated and optimised by current E.C.G. systems using vector-based electrocardiography. Although they can be effective for documenting transient E.C.G. abnormalities, especially inside the S.T. segment, smart non-vector-based devices for patients are primarily beneficial for the diagnosis of arrhythmias and cannot substitute the 12-lead E.C.G. for the diagnosis of ischemia. The electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) is inexpensive and easily accessible, but because of its alleged limited specificity, its utility as a screening tool for early detection of athletes with a cardiac condition in danger of immediate cardiac death is contentious. The interpreting parameters have been continuously evolving over the past 10 years as various efforts have been made to better the separation between healthy and pathological E.C.G. abnormalities in athletes. Electrocardiographic abnormalities that are unrelated to cardiac electrical activity are known as electrocardiographic artefacts. E.C.G. elements, including the baseline and waves, can become altered as a result of artefacts.
