LAVADENZ MORALES, Roberto. CLINICAL AND ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHICS PARAMETERS, FOR DECADES OF LIFE. ANALYSIS FOR THE HOLTER OF 24 HOURS. Rev. Méd. La Paz [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.1, pp.29-38. ISSN 1726-8958.

Introduction.- The electrocardiogram , has normal variations in accordance with the ages, existing alterations of the heart rhythm as the age advances , likewise the symptoms and its correlation with the arrhythmias, the vary with the age and the sex of the patients, these variations can register better with the 24 hours Holter monitoring. Objetives.- To use the 24 hour Holter monitoring, to investigate variations, for decades oflife of: symptoms, arrhythmias, correlation symptoms-arrhythmias, and the difference of these variables, according to the sex of patients. Methods.- The made studies were 1220, to 662 women and 558 man, with an age range between 1 and 93 years. The variables were: age, sex, symptoms (dyspnea, syncope, presyncope, palpitations and chest pain); ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias; positive correlation, when the arrhythmia coincide with the symptom; negative correlation, if the arrhythmia didn't coincide with the symptom, or the same on was absent; if they didn't register arrhythmias, the study qualified as normal. The patients were classified by decades of life, being correlated the different variables with the age groups. Results.- Symptomatic patients 42%, Arrhythmias 81%; positive correlation 23%; normal studies 18%. The men prevailed in the aged extremes. The palpitations, were the most frequent symptom, prevalent in the years 30. The presyncope were most frequent, as the age increased. The premature beats increased in the frequency, as the age advanced. The Supraventricular Tachycardia, increased progressively, from the 30 years. The Atrial Fibrillations and Flutter, the began to be presented, to the 40 years, being made but you frequent in every decade. The Sinus Arrrested, was presented to the 60 years. The Complete Heart Block, were most frequent at the end of the ages. The positive correlation, were frequent in the middle ages. The normal studies, were frequent, only in the first ages. The arrhythmias, were being increased, as the age advanced. Conclusion.- In each age group, the clinical, and electrocardiográphics parameters, the are different; the symptomatic patients, as well as the positive correlation, the are less frequent in the extreme ages; determined arrhythmias, the register more frequent according to the age it advances, due to progressive aging of the excitoconductor systems.
