Exercise-induced ST-segment changes simulating myocardial ischemia have been described in otherwise normal subjects during hyperventilation. We present the case of a 60-year-old man with pectus excavatum showing significant exercise-induced "pseudo-ischaemic" ST-segment changes with neither coronary artery disease nor anxiety-induced hyperventilation. We found no report of the possible causative role of a narrow antero-posterior chest diameter in inducing "pseudo-ischaemic" ST-segment changes during exercise stress test in the literature.

Background: Pseudo ischemic ST segment changes during supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) are not yet fully understood. Our aim was to determine whether venticulo-atrial (VA) conduction during SVT may be a possible mechanism for ST depression (STd) in SVT.

Methods: Patients undergoing SVT ablation (2010-2012) were analyzed (n = 72).

Background: Continuous vectorcardiography ST-segment monitoring has become a well-established method in the surveillance of patients with acute myocardial ischemia. However, immobility of the vectorcardiography technique prevents monitoring of patients during ambulatory activities. Computerized vectorcardiography telemetry (CVT) with the capacity of real-time ST-segment analysis has been developed in an attempt to overcome this shortcoming.

Electrocardiographic QRS- and ST-segment changes are to be expected during changes in body posture. We prospectively analyzed the influence of changes in body position on continuous vectorcardiography monitoring of QRS-vector difference (QRS-VD) and ST change-vector magnitude (STC-VM) according to the currently used criteria of myocardial ischemia in 21 normal subjects. Fifteen (71%) and 6 (29%) subjects had significant positional QRS-VD and STC-VM changes, respectively.
