Detection of Late Potentials of the Heart

  • Conference paper
Advances in Biomedical Measurement

Abstract

In modern industrialised countries chronic ischaemic heart disease is one of the major causes of death. In the course of its progression it frequently leads to acute myocardial infarction or, via different forms of heart-rhythm disturbance, to sudden heart death.
