Overview
Electrocardiogram
In patients with acute burn injuries sinus tachycardia and a prolonged QT interval were the most common ECG abnormalities. There was no correlation between the extent of burn injuries and observed ECG abnormalities. No patient had a life threatening arrhythmia, and all patients had a good outcome.[1]abnormal electrocardiogram (nonspecific ST-T wave changes most commonly) are at increased risk for cardiac arrhythmias and should be observed until the ECG normalizes[2]
