Inappropriate and confusing electrocardiographic terms: J-wave syndromes and early repolarization
Abstract
A plea is made for not using in publications the terms J-wave syndromes and early repolarization until such terms are properly defined by appropriate task forces established by recognized authorities. The currently used electrographic terminology, including J-point elevation, meets our needs.
