Extract

Accurate detection of a heart attack (an acute myocardial infarction) is one of the most pressing needs in medicine. Recordings of the electrocardiogram (ECG) (electrical activity of the heart) are one of the first tools used to diagnose a heart attack, but the ECG is not very accurate, especially at the beginning of a heart attack. A new technique for analysing a special part of the ECG may provide more accurate detection of a heart attack. The study hypothesis is that this new technique, the HFQRS analysis, will provide important additional information to that available from the regular ECG.
