Sentence examples for contiguous leads from inspiring English sources

The 15-lead ECG was able to detect ≥0.5 mm (74% vs 38%, p <0.0001) and ≥1 mm (62% vs 34%, p <0.0001) ST elevation in any 2 contiguous leads more frequently than the 12-lead ECG.

Electrocardiograms obtained an average of 1 year before STEMI were analyzed for ER pattern, defined as notching or slurring of the terminal QRS complex or J-point elevation >0.1 mV above baseline in ≥2 contiguous leads.

These issues include the effect of other ECG findings, whether the QRS ST junction occurs before or after the J waves, if contiguous leads are required and rules to distinguish J waves from fragmented QRS complexes.

Current ST algorithms may contribute to alarm fatigue because; (1) they are not designed with a delay (minutes), rather alarm to brief spikes (i.e., turning, heart rate changes), and (2) alarm to changes in a single ECG lead, rather than contiguous leads.

The inclusion criteria were all the following: a) symptoms suggesting acute myocardial ischemia lasting for more than 30 minutes and ST-segment elevation of more than 0.1 mV in two or more contiguous leads on the ECG; b) clinical indication of primary or rescue PCI; and c) use of a thrombus aspiration device during PCI.

Patients are eligible for primary PCI when they have symptoms of an acute STEMI accompanied by an electrocardiogram with ST-segment elevation of ≥0.2 mV in two or more contiguous leads and present within 12 hours after the onset of symptoms.

Male and female patients (older than 18 years) were selected for participation based on the following criteria: chest pain lasting 30 min or longer, ST elevation greater than 0.1 mV in at least two contiguous precordial leads, or at least two adjacent limb leads on the electrocardiogram or evidence of new onset left-bundle branch block.

Early repolarization is defined as >1 mm of J-point elevation in any two contiguous ECG leads, with the exception of the right precordial (V1 V3) leads.

STEMI was defined as ST-segment elevation of ≥ 2 mm in two or more contiguous chest leads, ≥ 1 mm in two or more limb leads, or new left bundle-branch block, together with typical symptoms (chest pain or discomfort > 20 min duration).

STEMI was defined as ST-segment elevation of > 2 mm in two or more contiguous chest leads or > 1 mm in two or more limb leads or new left bundle-branch block, together with typical symptoms (chest pain or discomfort > 20 min).

ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was defined as the presence of: 1) typical chest pain lasting >30 minutes; 2) ST segment elevation ≥2 mm in contiguous chest leads and/or ST segment elevation at ≥1 mm in ≥2 standard leads, or new left bundle branch block; and 3) positive cardiac necrosis markers.
