Hi,
With the question “What is early repolarization syndrome? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
The term early repolarization is understood as “J wave” or “J point elevation”, used to describe a QRS-T variation on the electrocardiogram (ECG). ). Premature repolarization syndrome mainly occurs in people under 30 years of age and often has no specific clinical symptoms - it can be found in people with heart and blood vessel disease and in otherwise perfectly healthy individuals. Sinus bradycardia is common in healthy and active people, possibly in the elderly or with sinus node failure.
However, sinus bradycardia is usually only dangerous if accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, exertion, very tired,... Therefore, you need a comprehensive diagnosis, electrocardiogram, echocardiograms, blood tests, stress tests if needed... as well as regular check-ups with a Cardiologist.
If you still have questions about sinus bradycardia 58 times/minute early repolarization in young people, you can go to the nearest medical facility or Vinmec Health System Hospital for medical examination and treatment. more detailed advice.
