Supports non-invasive conduction block localization by surface ECG; leaves open prospective validation against invasive mapping in device recipients.
What is the value of surface ECG in diagnosing conduction disorders and evaluating cardiac implantable electronic devices?
Surface ECG remains a fundamental, non-invasive tool for diagnosing conduction disorders, localizing block sites, and evaluating cardiac implantable electronic devices.
Silva et al. (2020) conducted a review in Conduction disorders. Surface ECG was evaluated. Surface ECG allows the diagnosis of atrioventricular and intraventricular conduction disorders and their anatomical block sites without the need for invasive tests.
