A study of T wave changes in the electrocardiograms of normal individuals

Electrocardiographic T wave changes with heavy exercise

“…However, it returned in both the five and ten minutes postexercise recordings. These results in the ECG recordings agreed with those found by Plas (1963) and Kiessling, et al (1964).…”

“…The nature and configuration of the bifid wave stimulated those reported elsewhere (Plas 1963 andKiessling, et al 1964). While little research has been advanced to explain the bifid T wave, it is possible that the heart ceases to use lactate as its primary fuel source (Bing, et al 1960) and begins to use more glycogen (Plas 1963).…”

Effect of training and wheat germ oil on the precordial T wave of middle-aged men

“…The increases in T wave amplitude agreed with the findings of Wolf (1953), Beckner and Winsor (1954), and Cureton (1958). The tendency for the T wave amplitude to become elevated in excess of the resting recording in the minutes immediately following exercise (first through fifth) and to return to or below the resting level in the later stages of recovery coincided with the observations of Lloyd- Thomas (1961), Kiessling, et. al.…”

THE RELATIONSHIP OF REPORTED CARDIOVASCULAR FINDINGS TO HEIGHT OF THE T1‐WAVE IN THE ELECTROCARDIOGRAM

“…Second, the fact that the changes in this study with age were small can not be used as evidence that small differences are not important. Kiessling et al (3) have shown that mortality rates in subjects either with or without minor T‐wave changes were in a ratio of 2+ to 1, respectively. Third, it is noteworthy that minor alterations in the height of T 1 may be predictive of the clinical cardiovascular pattern even in a presumably healthy group of professional people.…”
