Investigative electrocardiography in epidemiological studies and clinical trials

Electrocardiology is a relatively new modality in clinical trials, but electrocardiograms (ECGs) have already become established as a valuable research tool for investigation of morbidity and mortality risk associated with various clinical and subclinical conditions. ECGs have also become a crucial...
