OBJECTIVE An attempt to detect the 'parasitic contribution' of high frequencies in the electrocardiogram signal. METHODS A new method--gliding window fast Fourier transform analysis (GWFFTA)--was developed. It was applied in healthy subjects and in patients with acute myocardial infarction. METHODS Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital. METHODS The GWFFTA was used in 29 healthy volunteers and in a group of 30 patients with myocardial infarction, on day 7 to 14 after admission to a coronary unit. METHODS Noninvasive examination, performed under standard conditions. RESULTS GWFFTA provides better reproducible results compared with 'classic' fast Fourier transform analysis. The parasitic contribution of high frequencies within QRS complex and ST segment in patients with acute myocardial infarction is independent of presence or absence of late potentials. Contribution of high frequencies are three times higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction than in healthy probands. CONCLUSIONS GWFFTA is a reproducible method of detection of high frequencies during whole heart activation. Contribution of high frequencies in patients with acute myocardial infarction reflects the state of the entire myocardium. It is also confirmed by the lack of correlation with the presence or absence of late potentials. Late potentials are more reflective of focal changes.

D005583 Fourier Analysis Analysis based on the mathematical function first formulated by Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Fourier in 1807. The function, known as the Fourier transform, describes the sinusoidal pattern of any fluctuating pattern in the physical world in terms of its amplitude and its phase. It has broad applications in biomedicine, e.g., analysis of the x-ray crystallography data pivotal in identifying the double helical nature of DNA and in analysis of other molecules, including viruses, and the modified back-projection algorithm universally used in computerized tomography imaging, etc. (From Segen, The Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992) Fourier Series,Fourier Transform,Analysis, Cyclic,Analysis, Fourier,Cyclic Analysis,Analyses, Cyclic,Cyclic Analyses,Series, Fourier,Transform, Fourier
