Wearable Patch ECG monitors and transesophageal electrophysiological study for diagnosing palpitations of unknown origin.
Objective: To analyze the application value of wearable adhesive Patch ECG monitors combined with transesophageal electrophysiological study (TEPS) in the diagnosis of palpitations of unknown origin.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with suspected arrhythmia who were admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital between October 2021 and July 2023 due to recurrent paroxysmal palpitations of unknown origin, with or without accompanying symptoms such as dizziness, amaurosis, and syncope. All patients underwent TEPS. Those who did not exhibit arrhythmia during the TEPS were selected for Patch ECG monitoring, which lasted several weeks (depending on the duration of symptom capture). The results of TEPS, Patch ECG monitors, and clinical diagnoses were observed and recorded. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value (NPV) for diagnosing palpitations of unknown origins was analyzed based on clinical diagnostic outcomes for (1) TEPS alone, (2) Patch ECG monitoring in patients with negative TEPS results, and (3) the combination of both methods.
Results: A total of 569 patients were included in this study. The TEPS results exhibited that 227 of the 569 patients did not detect arrhythmias and 342 detected arrhythmias. Of the 569 patients, 102 refused to undergo Patch ECG monitors, and 467 patients completed the entire study process. Among them, 379 cases (66.61%) were clinically diagnosed as arrhythmias. TEPS shows good performance in most evaluation indices except NPV (69.60%, 95% CI, 61.54%-77.66%). The combined diagnosis was strongly consistent with clinical diagnosis. The accuracy, sensitivity, and NPV of TEPS combined with Patch ECG monitors in the diagnosis of palpitations of unknown origin were significantly higher than those of TEPS alone.
Conclusion: Wearable adhesive patch ECG monitors combined with TEPS can enhance the diagnostic efficiency of palpitations of unknown origin.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers? Which frontiers? Where exactly are the frontiers of cardiovascular medicine? And who should be defining these frontiers?
At Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine we believe it is worth being curious to foresee and explore beyond the current frontiers. In other words, we would like, through the articles published by our community journal Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, to anticipate the future of cardiovascular medicine, and thus better prevent cardiovascular disorders and improve therapeutic options and outcomes of our patients.
