Abstract: | Over the years, an electrocardiogram had become the basic tool to study the heart physiology and pathophysiology. Many authors gave a substantial contribution in understanding the electrophysiological basis for numerous electrocardiographic changes. Some of them were named after authors themselves, or others used the names of scientists who first discovered or explained the nature of a particular electrocardiographic finding. In this article, electrocardiographic phenomena and eponyms used in today's electrocardiography are described. |
