Key result
The new lead wire electrode increased the detectable P wave time compared to the conventional pill electrode and caused less discomfort.
Why the study?
Does a newly developed lead-shaped esophageal electrode improve the readable time of atrial waves and reduce discomfort compared to a conventional pill-shaped electrode in long-term ECG recording?

Taichi Mouri (1991) conducted an observational in Healthy volunteers and patients with arrhythmias (n=21). New lead wire electrode vs. Conventional pill electrode was evaluated on Detectable P wave time as a percentage of total recording time (p=<0.05). The new lead wire electrode increased the detectable P wave time compared to the conventional pill electrode and caused less discomfort.
