  • AECG facilitates detection, quantification, and morphology assessment for evaluation of overall PVC burden as a potential cause of tachycardiomyopathy and correlation between symptoms and ECG findings.

    “AECG facilitates detection, quantification, and morphology assessment for the evaluation of the overall PVC burden as a potential cause of”

    From 2017 ISHNE-HRS expert consensus statement on ambulatory ECG and external cardiac monitoring/telemetry (2017) · cites this paper as Zipes et al., 2006

    Section 5.2.3 (page unavailable) says ambulatory ECG can detect arrhythmias, establish their frequency, and relate symptoms to them. The guidelines also say repetitive monomorphic VT, characterized by frequent ventricular ectopy, can rarely cause tachycardia-related cardiomyopathy (section 7.1.1.4; page unavailable). Our copy does not establish that ambulatory ECG assesses PVC morphology or that overall PVC burden itself is evaluated as a cause of cardiomyopathy. (LLM, conf=0.83)

  • Any type of tachyarrhythmia, regardless of whether or not there is an underlying structural or arrhythmogenic heart disease, can give rise to palpitations.

    “Any type of tachyarrhythmia, regardless of whether or not there is an underlying structural or arrhythmogenic heart disease, can give rise to palpitations: atrial extrasystole, ventricular extrasystole, tachycardias with regular ventricular activity (sinus tachycardia, atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia, atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, atrial flutter, atrial tachycardias), and”
  • Palpitations due to arrhythmias, in particular of ventricular origin, but also atrial fibrillation, are associated with different prognostic implications.

    “On the one hand, depending on the clinical characteristics of the patient, palpitations due to arrhythmias, in particular of ventricular origin, but also atrial fibrillation, are associated with different prognostic implications.15 -17”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
