ECG marker of adverse electrical remodeling post-myocardial infarction predicts outcomes in MADIT II study.

BACKGROUND: Post-myocardial infarction (MI) structural remodeling is characterized by left ventricular dilatation, fibrosis, and hypertrophy of the non-infarcted myocardium. OBJECTIVE: The goal of our study was to quantify post-MI electrical remodeling by measuring the sum absolute QRST integral (SA...
