Results of Holter monitoring U.S. Air Force aircrew with ectopy on 12-lead electrocardiograms.

摘要: Purpose: To evaluate the results of 24-h Holter monitoring performed on healthy U.S. Air Force aircrew with asymptomatic ectopy resting electrocardiograms (ECG). Methods: A historical review USAF Central ECG Library database was conducted all studies completed for evaluation between 1 Jan 86 and 31 Dec 97. Univariate multivariate statistical analyses were to determine association aeromedical dispositions evaluated incidental ectopy. Results: During this period, 147,571 ECGs submitted Aeromedical Consultation Service (ACS) interpretation. The mean age subjects 35 yr (range 19 57 yr). There 480 Of these, 49% had normal or variant findings; another 11% found acceptable flying after treadmill testing echocardiography. ACS required remaining 40% subjects. Overall, 4% permanently disqualified, 17% lost follow-up. Excluding follow-up, 95% returned status (with without a waiver). Conclusions: When controlled age, no significant difference outcome seen when comparing supraventricular ventricular subjects, 51% abnormal studies, but vast majority flying. Results study provide information useful in further defining medical protocols monitoring.
