A Novel Method for Enhancement of Standard Rest Electrocardiograms (ECG) Provides New Parameters for Early Detection of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

July 24, 2013 updated by: Hillel Yaffe Medical Center
The investigators aim to determine whether a new method of enhancing and improving ECG acquisition, analysis and display is effective. The investigators will perform superimposition and summation of multiple standard ECG cycles, in the same lead, by temporal alignment to the peak R wave and voltage alignment to an improved baseline at the T-P segment.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
ECG Voltage spread
Time Frame: One month
We will measure the voltage spread at the S-T and P-R intervals after superimposition and summation of multiple standard ECG cycles in the same lead, by temporal alignment to the peak R wave and voltage alignment to an improved baseline at the T-P segment.
