Population prevalence of electrocardiographic abnormalities. Results of WAW-KARD study.
CONCLUSIONS: Only one third of adult residents of Warsaw had normal ECG, and about a half of both young and asymptomatic individuals. The most often observed ECG abnormalities in men were intra-ventricular conduction disturbances, and ST segment depression and negative T wave changes in case of women. Atrial fibrillation was the most prevalent arrhythmia. We did not found statistically significant time trends for repolarization changes, conduction disturbances and arrhythmia.
