title: [Pitfalls of the normal electrocardiogram].
abstract: The authors report the cases of 7 patients with a normal basal electrocardiogram, whereas they were all affected with a high risk cardiovascular condition: coronary insufficiency in 3 cases, paroxysmal arrhythmia in 4 cases. They recall the limits of the conventional ECG and emphasise interest of dynamic recordings, with effort tests, and/on continuous ECG recording in the identification of certain transient heart manifestations.
