Overview
Electrocardiogram
- The EKG findings in wild-type (senile) amyloidosis have low sensitivity and specificity for the condition.[1]
- This is because the EKG findings are also common in aging patients in the setting of comorbidities.
- EKG findings encountered during the evaluation of a patient with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis are given below:
- Pseudoinfarct pattern[2]
