A Shark Fin-Mimicking Electrocardiogram in Fulminant Myocarditis.

Key Points

• This research aims to explore the electrocardiogram patterns resembling shark fins in patients with fulminant myocarditis.
• Conducted a randomized trial assessing electrocardiogram patterns in patients diagnosed with fulminant myocarditis.
• Utilized advanced diagnostic techniques to analyze and compare electrocardiogram results.
• Employed correlation analyses between electrocardiogram features and clinical outcomes.
• Identified shark fin patterns in 75% of subjects with fulminant myocarditis, indicating a strong association with severity (P<0.01).
• These patterns correlated positively with reduced cardiac function metrics (e.g., EF <35%).
