Abstract:
The signal averaged electrocardiogram was used to analyse about 100 to 300 heart leads. Then the high resolution electrocardiograms were processed to identify the low intensive high-frequency electric signals at the end of QRS complexes that expressed the late potential and were the background of ventricular arrhythmias. There was a strong relationship between the arrythmias that were triggered by programmed physiological electric stimulations and the presence of late potential. The late potential also related to the increase in sudden death frequency of post MI patients. It is a value predictor for arrythmic events
