Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
ECG monitoring plays pivotal role in managing the patient in operation theatre during surgery and is one of the important monitor among ASA monitoring. On the hand the use of electrocautery is quite common in operative room by surgeon that causes interference in ECG waveform. Sometime such interference leads to error in diagnosis and results in unwanted diagnostic as well as therapeutic intervention. We are reporting one such case that demonstrates artifactual change in ECG by electrocautey.
