Data analysis of diagnostic accuracies in 12-lead electrocardiogram interpretation by junior medical fellows

Original language description

Background: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most commonly used diagnostic procedure for assessing the cardiovascular system. The aim of this study was to compare ECG diagnostic skill among fellows of cardiology and of other internal medicine specialties (non-cardiology fellows). Methods: A total of 2900 ECG interpretations were collected. A set of 100 clinical 12-lead ECG tracings were selected and classified into 12 diagnostic categories. The ECGs were evaluated by 15 cardiology fellows and of 14 non-cardiology fellows. Diagnostic interpretations were classified as (1) correct, (2) almost correct, (3) incorrect, and (4) dangerously incorrect. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess confounding factors and to determine the odds ratios for the months of experience, age, sex, and the distinction between cardiology and non-cardiology fellows. Results: The mean rate of correct diagnoses by cardiology vs. non-cardiology fellows was 48.9 +/- 8.9% vs. 35.9 +/- 8.0% (p = 0.001;
