ST Segment Analysis by Holter Monitoring:

摘要

There has been a renewed interest in ST segment analysis by Holter Monitoring, especially in multicenter clinical trials, but consensus on how to define an ischemic event is missing. We conducted a survey of European and U.S. publications involving ST segment analysis by Holter monitoring from 1975 to 2002 and found no notation of any correction for baseline ST segment depression in 52% of them. In 45% J‐point depression was required in addition to ST segment depression measured either 60 ms (24%) or 80 ms (76%) after the J point. In 28% ST segment elevations were included.
