Electrocardiogram features and course in patients with takotsubo syndrome

Scally et al. [1] explored the differences in the electrocardiogram (ECG) morphology and timing of de/re-polarization between 27 patients with takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and 37 patients with an acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), over the course of 0–3 days. The authors found fewer total abnormal leads, similar number of ST-elevation leads, lesser total magnitude of ST-elevation, smaller sum of positive T wave amplitude,...
