May signal impending rupture during AMI monitoring; hypothesis-generating for prospective validation of continuous ECG protocols.
Observational (n=100)
Continuous ECG monitoring during acute myocardial infarction reveals a specific pattern of slowing sinus rhythm followed by nodal rhythm during acute tamponade from ventricular rupture.
Meurs et al. (1970) conducted an observational in acute myocardial infarction (n=100). Continuous electrocardiogram registration was evaluated on Electrocardiographic changes during acute tamponade. Continuous electrocardiogram monitoring during acute myocardial infarction revealed that acute tamponade from ventricular rupture is characterized by slowing of sinus rhythm followed by nodal rhythm.
