Overview
An ECG may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications of polymyositis and dermatomyositis. Findings on an ECG suggestive of/diagnostic of cardiac involvement include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
Electrocardiogram
- An ECG may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications of polymyositis and dermatomyositis.
- Findings on an ECG suggestive of cardiac involvement include:[1][2]
- Conduction abnormalities
- Atrioventricular conduction abnormalities
- Arrhythmias
- Left atrial abnormality
- ST-T changes
