  2. 1. High-Frequency ECG in Ischemic Heart Disease

    Author : Jonas Pettersson; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiology; Clinical physics; high-frequency QRS components; electrocardiogram; myocardial infarction; myocardial ischemia; Ischemic heart disease; tomography; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering;

    Abstract : Analysis of high-frequency QRS components (HF-QRS) is one of the emerging methods for increasing the diagnostic performance of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The overall objective of the thesis is to investigate whether analysis of HF-QRS has the ability to provide information about ischemic heart disease and so serve as an adjunctive diagnostic tool in several clinical situations.

  4. 2. Novel approaches using electrocardiographic imaging for early detection of ARVC in patients and relatives and symptoms preceding sudden death

    Author : Varvara Kommata; Carina Blomström-Lundqvist; Elena Sciaraffia; Domenico Corrado; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy; diagnosis; gene carriers; body surface mapping; electrocardiographic imaging; sudden cardiac death; Cardiology; Kardiologi; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

    Abstract : Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited disease of the myocardium, predominantly affecting the right ventricle (RV). Arrhythmias are common among patients with the disease and Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) can occur even in early stages. READ MORE

  5. 3. Detection of Myocardial Ischemia using Real-Time Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography

    Author : Petri Gudmundsson; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; myocardial contrast echocardiography; MCE; stress echocardiography; adenosine; perfusion; real-time; visual; quantative; wall motion; power modulation; bedside; SPECT; coronary insufficiency;

    Abstract : Diagnostisering av syrebrist i hjärtmuskeln med hjälp av kontrastförstärkt ultraljudsundersökning av hjärtmuskelns genomblödning. Ultraljudsundersökning av hjärtat (ekokardiografi) används mycket inom hjärtsjukvården idag, oftast för att utreda hjärtats och hjärtklaffarnas anatomi och funktion. READ MORE

  6. 4. Perioperative myocardial infarction in cardiac surgery : a diagnostic dilemma

    Author : Lars-Göran Dahlin; Torbjörn Ivert; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Perioperative myocardial infarction remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery. In spite of this there is no consensus regarding diagnostic criteria and consequently the reported incidence varies widely. READ MORE

  7. 5. Screening for silent cardiac disease in an elderly population aiming at stroke reduction

    Author : Katrín Ragna Kemp Guðmundsdóttir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : INTRODUCTION: Atrial Fibrillation is the most common clinical arrhythmia and affects over 30 million people worldwide. Atrial fibrillation is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with death, stroke and heart failure being the most feared complications. READ MORE
