Electrocardiogram (ECG) is one part of the complex process of diagnosing pulmonary embolism. We review what your ECG can tell you about your condition.

The most common ECG finding in the setting of a pulmonary embolism is sinus tachycardia. However, the “S1Q3T3” pattern of acute cor pulmonale is classic; this is termed the McGinn-White Sign.

Development of a machine learning model using electrocardiogram signals to improve acute pulmonary embolism screening. European Heart Journal - Digital Health , 2021; DOI: 10.1093/ehjdh/ztab101 ...

Pulmonary embolisms are dangerous, lung-clogging blot clots. In a pilot study, scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai showed for the first time that artificial intelligence (AI ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai for the first time designed a combination of EKG and electronic health record (EHR) data to screen the risk of pulmonary embolism.

Fainting after recent air travel could be a sign of pulmonary embolism, a potentially fatal blockage in the lungs. ... as well as more abnormal ECG readings. Skip to main content.

In each situation, the algorithm learned to identify a pulmonary embolism case by comparing either EKG or EHR data with corresponding results from CTPAs.

The McGinn-White Sign is the S1Q3T3 pattern seen on the ECG in the setting of acute pulmonary embolism or other causes of acute right heart strain (cor pulmonale). A large S wave in lead I, a Q ...

A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot that blocks the lung’s arteries. Blood clots do not show on chest X-rays. However, these X-rays may help doctors rule out other health conditions with ...
