Electrocardiograph monitor artifacts in a neonatal intensive care unit.

Abstract:

:A wide variety of artifacts may be found when monitoring the ECG in a neonatal intensive care unit. Many of the artifacts resemble arrhythmias, and unless they are recognized as artifacts they may lead to serious errors of diagnosis and therapy. Many of the artifacts are caused by patient movement such as seizures, tremulousness, or hiccups. Others may be introduced by the monitor itself or be caused by electrical equipment in the vicinity. A group of ECG tracings is presented to illustrate the various artifacts encountered. Features that distinguish the artifacts from the arrhythmias they mimic are described, as are suggestions for elimination of the artifacts.
