Summary: | Portable, smartphone-sized electrocardiography (ECG) has the potential to reduce time to treatment for patients suffering acute cardiac ischemia, thereby lowering the morbidity and mortality. In the UMC Utrecht, a portable, smartphone-sized, multi-lead precordial ECG recording device (miniECG 1.0, UMC Utrecht) was developed.BackgroundPortable, smartphone-sized electrocardiography (ECG) has the potential to reduce time to treatment for patients suffering acute cardiac ischemia, thereby lowering the morbidity and mortality. In the UMC Utrecht, a portable, smartphone-sized, multi-lead precordial ECG recording device (miniECG 1.0, UMC Utrecht) was developed.The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of the miniECG to capture ischemic ECG changes in a porcine coronary occlusion model.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of the miniECG to capture ischemic ECG changes in a porcine coronary occlusion model.In 8 animals, antero-septal myocardial infarction was induced by 75-minute occlusion of the left anterior descending artery, after the first or second diagonal. MiniECG and 12-lead ECG recordings were acquired simultaneously before, during and after coronary artery occlusion and ST-segment deviation was evaluated.MethodsIn 8 animals, antero-septal myocardial infarction was induced by 75-minute occlusion of the left anterior descending artery, after the first or second diagonal. MiniECG and 12-lead ECG recordings were acquired simultaneously before, during and after coronary artery occlusion and ST-segment deviation was evaluated.During the complete occlusion and reperfusion period, miniECG showed large ST-segment deviation in comparison to 12-lead ECG. MiniECG ST-segment deviation was observed within 1 minute for most animals. The miniECG was positive for ischemia (ie, ST-segment deviation ≥1 mm) for 99.7% (Q1-Q3: 99.6%-99.9%) of the occlusion time, while the 12-lead was only positive for 79.8% (Q1-Q3: 81.1%-98.7%) of the time (P = 0.018). ST-segment deviation reached maxima of 10.5 mm [95% CI: 6.5-14.5 mm] vs 5.0 mm [95% CI: 2.0-8.0 mm] for the miniECG vs 12-lead ECG, respectively.ResultsDuring the complete occlusion and reperfusion period, miniECG showed large ST-segment deviation in comparison to 12-lead ECG. MiniECG ST-segment deviation was observed within 1 minute for most animals. The miniECG was positive for ischemia (ie, ST-segment deviation ≥1 mm) for 99.7% (Q1-Q3: 99.6%-99.9%) of the occlusion time, while the |
