Abstract

OBJECTIVE: T-wave peak to end interval (TPE) is a measure of repolarization dispersion, which has been reported as a major arrhythmogenic factor post acute myocardial infarction. The aim of our study was to investigate the changes in TPE in this patient population with regard to periprocedural intracoronary ECG findings.
