Electrocardiograms Have Become One Of The Most Important, And Widely Used Medical Tools For Diagnosing Diseases Such As Cardiac Arrhythmias, Conduction Disorders, Electrolyte Imbalances, Hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease And Myocardial Infarction. This Book Reviews Recent Advancements In Electrocardiography. The Four Sections Of This Volume, Cardiac Arrhythmias, Myocardial Infarction, Autonomic Dysregulation And Cardiotoxicology, Provide Comprehensive Reviews Of Advancements In The Clinical Applications Of Electrocardiograms. This Book Is Replete With Diagrams, Recordings, Flow Diagrams And Algorithms Which Demonstrate The Possible Future Direction For Applying Electrocardiography To Evaluating The Development And Progression Of Cardiac Diseases. The Chapters In This Book Describe A Number Of Unique Features Of Electrocardiograms In Adult And Pediatric Patient Populations With Predilections For Cardiac Arrhythmias And Other Electrical Abnormalities Associated With Hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease, Myocardial Infarction, Sleep Apnea Syndromes, Pericarditides, Cardiomyopathies And Cardiotoxicities, As Well As Innovative Interpretations Of Electrocardiograms During Exercise Testing And Electrical Pacing. 00 preface_ Advances in Electrocardiograms - Clinical Applications......Page 1 01 a Part 1_ Cardiac Arrhythmias......Page 13 01 The Prognostic Role of ECG in Arterial Hypertension......Page 15 02 Electrocardiographic QT Interval Prolongation in Subjects With and Without Type 2 Diabetes – Risk Factors and Clinical Implications......Page 25 03 The Prevalence and Prognostic Value of Rest Premature Ventricular Contractions......Page 39 04 Arrhythmias in Children and Young Adults......Page 53 05 Paced ECG Morphology – Reveals More than What It Conceals......Page 89 06 Electrocardiograms in Acute Pericarditis......Page 95 07 The Remodeling of Connexins Localized at Pulmonary Vein – Left Atria in Triggering and Maintenance of Atrial Fibrillation......Page 107 08 a Part 2_ Myocardial Infarction......Page 123 08 ECG in Acute Myocardial Infarction in the Reperfusion Era......Page 125 09 Mechanisms of Postinfarction Electrophysiological Abnormality: Sympathetic Neural Remodeling, Electrical Remodeling and Gap Junction Remodeling......Page 145 10 Novel Porcine Models of Myocardial Ischemia/Infarction – Technical Progress, Modified Electrocardiograms Validating, and Future Application......Page 187 11 a Part 3_ Autonomic Dysregulation......Page 203 11 The Emergence and Development of Physiological Regulatory Systems of Newborn Infants in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit......Page 205 12 Automated Detection and Classification of Sleep Apnea Types Using Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Electroencephalogram (EEG) Features......Page 223 13 Low Heart Rate Variability in Healthy Young Adult Males......Page 243 14 The Role of Exercise Test After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention......Page 257 15 a Part 4_ Cardiotoxicology......Page 281 15 Toxic and Drug-Induced Changes of the Electrocardiogram......Page 283 16 Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormality Among Residents in Arseniasis-Endemic and Non-Endemic Areas of Southwestern Taiwan – A Study of Gene-Gene and Gene-Environment Interactions......Page 309 17 Abnormal Electrocardiogram in Patients with Acute Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning......Page 331
