Discussion

Implication

Age-associated ECG reductions may warrant adjusted norms; leaves open whether stratification improves diagnostic accuracy.

Structured PICO

Population

518 normal men

Outcome

Correlations between 333 different electrocardiographic measurements and constitutional variables (age, body weight, height, chest configuration, race, and deviations from ideal weight)surrogate

Constitutional variables, particularly age, race, and body weight, significantly influence ECG measurements, highlighting the need for stratified diagnostic criteria.
