Overview

Due to the classic cardiac pain, patients presenting with Bornholm disease often have an ECG done to rule out life threatening diseases, such as myocardial infarction. Findings often include non-specific ECG findings may be seen; this includes T wave inversions that often resolve with resolution of the disease and MI can be ruled out due to the absence of ST changes.

Electrocardiogram

  • Non-specific ECG findings may be seen; this includes T wave inversions that often resolve with resolution of the disease[1]
ECG  showing normal sinus rhythm with no ST-T wave changes suggestive of any ischemia- PMID: 30364740


Cardiac Complications presenting with ECG changes:

Myocarditis; PMID: 31778001


Pericarditis; PMID: 24361030
