  • Title: [Vectorcardiographic diagnosis of the myocardial inactivatable zone].
    Author: de Micheli A, Medrano GA.
    Journal: Arch Inst Cardiol Mex; 1989; 59(2):195-210. PubMed ID: 2669657.
    Abstract:
    Clinical importance of the vectorcardiographic exploration (distant and spatial) of the myocardial electrical phenomenon is emphasized. This technique constitutes a useful integration of electrocardiographic exploration (near and analytical). The more characteristic morphological and chronological changes due to an inactivatable area are discussed in the light of ventricular myocardial depolarization. Some typical vectorcardiographic features corresponding to the presence of a myocardial inactivatable zone are presented. The utility of the complementary elements which vectorcardiography can bring to electrocardiography is emphasized. Both of these procedures integrate a rational exploration of electrical activity of the myocardium, the solid base of prognostic and therapeutic decisions in cases of myocardial infarction.
