Why the study?
To assess the accuracy of determining accessory pathway localization from 12-lead ECG tracings using 12 different algorithms in pediatric patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
Do 12-lead ECG algorithms accurately predict accessory pathway localization in pediatric patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome?
Do 12-lead ECG algorithms accurately predict accessory pathway localization in pediatric patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome?
ECG algorithms for predicting accessory pathway location in pediatric WPW patients have low accuracy for exact localization (maximum 58%) but moderate accuracy for determining laterality (up to 74%).
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Do not rely on ECG algorithms for exact AP localization in pediatric WPW; leaves open pediatric-specific tools.
