The one-pole peripheral AVR lead reflects the changes in the electromotive power of the heart in a frontal plane in a reverse (mirror) image. In 620 subjects with healthy hearts, with the aid of an extended ECG method; the variants of the auricle-ventricle complex in AVR lead in norm and the separate heart positions, were studied. The pathologically changed P-wave was established to be presented by its typical forms (P-mitrale, P-pulmonale), but in a mirror image in AVR lead. The positive auricle wave in AVR is an important sign for the presence of right-auricular ectopic rhythm. In 80 patients with left-ventricular loading, pathologically enlarged S deflection was found. In 232 patients with fight-ventricular loading (mitral stenosis, chronic pulmonary heart), the increase of the amplitude of the deflection R AVR and the change in the ratio R/Q aVR over 1, is a valuable information about the degree of the right-ventricular loading. Those changes closely correlate with the changes in the ventricular complex with the right thoracic leads and with the spirographic and X-ray examinations. the role of AVR lend in the differential diagnostic determination of the additional deflection r'R'aVR1 V1 in certain forms of disturbed intraventricular conductivity is emphasized. AVR lead reacts dynamically with the separate sites of myocardial necrosis, with the appearance of unusual forms of the ventricular complex in AVR (increased first R deflection AVR in posterior-inferior myocardial infarction, occurence of rSr' forms in AvR in posterior-basal infarction and wide split ventricular complexes in anterior (anteriorseptal)infarction, complicated with a bundle blockade. Myocardial ischemia (subpericardial and subendocardial) is represented in A V R in an image reverse to the left thoracic leads. A general conclusion is drawn that the separate interpretation of the changes in AVR lead is not reasonable. Its differential diagnostic value grows only with its synchronic analysis with the rest peripheral and especially precordial leads.

: In patients with acute coronary syndrome, electrocardiographic parameters, including ST elevation in lead aVR (aVR-STE), ST depression (aVR-STD), and QTc prolongation, are crucial. This study aims to show the predictive value of a longer QTc in emergency department patients with acute coronary syndrome and ≥1 mm ST elevation or depression in the aVR lead in electrocardiography. : A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1273 patients admitted to the emergency department with a preliminary diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome between 2020 and 2023.

Article Synopsis
  • Differentiating between ventricular tachycardia (VT) and supraventricular wide tachycardia (SWCT) using 12-lead ECG is challenging and has traditionally depended on manual interpretation, which can be limited by the user's expertise.
  • Recent research has introduced automated algorithms that may offer improved accuracy over manual methods, but there has been little direct comparison between these two approaches.
  • A study by LoCoco et al. (2024) evaluated the effectiveness of traditional manual ECG differentiation methods against five automated algorithms, analyzing 213 ECGs to assess their diagnostic performance.

Background: In this study, we aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of lead aVR ST-segment elevation in an initial electrocardiogram (ECG) in patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Furthermore, we evaluated the association between electrocardiographic changes in lead aVR and objective measures such as angiographic findings and Syntax score.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study, conducted as a pilot study, encompassing both a retrospective cross-sectional analysis and a longitudinal follow-up, took place at Chamran Hospital from November 2017 to October 2019.

Background: With the rapid expansion of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), TAVR valve explantation is also increasing. Nevertheless, previous reports on Lotus Edge valve explantation are limited to only two reports, none of which include intraoperative videos. Therefore, we report the case of an older adult who underwent a 2-year-old Lotus Edge valve explantation, after developing prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) and aortic annular abscess, with a strong indication for a TAVR explantation and surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR).
