T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> identification can be improved by using global repolarization waveforms obtained by combining several leads. The dominant T-wave (DTW) is a global repolarization waveform that proved to improve T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> identification when computed using the 15 (I to III, aVr, aVl, aVf, V1 to V6, X, Y, Z) leads usually available in clinics, of which only 8 (I, II, V1 to V6) are independent. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if the 8 independent leads are sufficient to obtain a DTW which allows a reliable T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> identification. To this aim T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> measures automatically identified from 15-dependent-lead DTWs of 46 control healthy subjects (CHS) and 103 acute myocardial infarction patients (AMIP) were compared with those obtained from 8-independent-lead DTWs. Results indicate that T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> distributions have not statistically different median values (CHS: 340 ms <jats:italic>vs</jats:italic>. 340 ms, respectively; AMIP: 325 ms <jats:italic>vs</jats:italic>. 320 ms, respectively), besides being strongly correlated (CHS: ρ=0.97, AMIP: 0.88; P&lt;10<jats:sup>-27</jats:sup>). Thus, measuring T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> from the 15-dependent-lead DTWs is statistically equivalent to measuring T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> from the 8-independent-lead DTWs. In conclusion, for the clinical purpose of automatic T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> identification from DTW, the 8 independent leads can be used without a statistically significant loss of accuracy but with a significant decrement of computational effort. The lead dependence of 7 out of 15 leads does not introduce a significant bias in the T<jats:sub>end</jats:sub> determination from 15 dependent lead DTWs.</jats:p> Automatic Identification of the Repolarization Endpoint by Computing the Dominant T-wave on a Reduced Number of Leads The Open Biomedical Engineering Journal
