Abstract:
To analyze the correlation between fragmented QRS complexes( fQRS) and inflammation in 136 patients with acute coronary syndromes(ACS). Patients with fQRS had increased hs-CRP levels (P<0.01) in comparison to patients with non-fragmented QRS. The higher hs-CRP levels was,the more the number of leads in the fQRS on ECG was(P<0.01). When we performed multiple logistic regression analysis, fQRS was found to be related to in-creased hs-CRP levels [ OR:1.507 , 95% CI:1.172~1.936 , P<0.01 ] . fQRS was independently related to in-creased hs-CRP. fQRS that may result as an end effect of inflammation at cellular level can represent increased car-diac risk in patients with ACS.
