High-frequency QRS analysis improves the specificity of exercise ECG testing in women referred for angiography
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Exercise ECG testing in women for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) has a higher false-positive rate compared to men. Consequently, women referred for coronary angiography following a positive exercise test often have normal coronary arteries or non-obstructive lesions. Analysis of the high-frequency components of the QRS complexes (HFQRS) has been reported to provide a sensitive means of detecting myocardial ischemia, …
