VLAY, S.C., et al. : Demonstration of Myocardial Ischemia by an Internal Loop Recorder. An internal loop recorder (ILR) implanted to evaluate syncope was activated during an episode of chest pain. Analysis of the recorded event revealed a marked increase in the amount of ST‐segment depression over baseline. In addition to rhythm analysis, the ILR may be able to assess myocardial ischemia. Further refinements of filtering may make analysis more accurate.
