title: [ECG charting and monitoring of patients in the acute stage of a myocardial infarct].
abstract: Fifty-three patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction were examined, using precardial ECG-charting (ECGC). The disease severity was found to correlate with the extension of myocardial infarction by ECGC. The follow up of patients for five days disclosed the consistent time-course of R-wave in QRS complex which corresponded to the clinical course of the disease. In 72% of the cases, the zone of the greatest variations in R-wave was ascertained by means of ECGC only. The ECGC method was shown to be of informative value in evaluating the gravity of the patient's state and it helped to identify the area of continuous monitoring for analyzing the condition and therapeutic response of the patient over time.
