Product Description:
The Minnesota Code Manual presents a systematic, objective measuring system for electrocardiographic findings in clinincal trials and population studies of cardiovascular disease. The first edition published in 1982 classifies endpoints of clinical trials and characterizes arrhythmias and conduction defects. This edition also provides standard procedure for the codes application by trained medical or technical personnel. In addition, it is used by experienced investigators to teach measurement and coding of the ECG in the Core ECG Lab.
The Minnesota Code incorporates standardized measurement rules for ECG waveform features with quantitiative, unambiguous and objective ECG criteria which provide mutally exclusive defined categories of the major ECG findings (both "normal" and "abnormal"), including those representing myocardial necrosis, injury, ischemia, hypertrophy, conduction defects and arrhythmias. Although the Minnesota Code does not provide diagnostic labels, it is understood by clinicians concerned with diagnostic endpoints. The Minnesota Code also ensures that ECG data from national or international studies are comparable in terms of the prevalence and incidence of abnormal findings.
Updated to reflect changes in understanding over the last 20 years, this title provides the benchmark for coding in electrocardiographic applications. The Minnesota Code Manual of Electrocardiographic Findings constitutes an essential source of reference for clinical trials and population-based cardiovascular studies.
