Overview
The findings on electrocardiogram (ECG) in hyperthermia include sinus tachycardia and non specific ST segment changes among others.[1]
Electrocardiogram
The ECG findings in hyperthermia include:
- Sinus tachycardia[1]
- Diffuse non specific ST segment changes[1][2]
- Non specific ischemic changes[1][2]
- Prolonged QT interval[1]
- Brugada syndrome[3]
