[Psycho- and neurovegetative effects on the ECG of children and adolescents]

In six patients between 10 and 21 years of age vegetative function disorders were diagnosed. All of them showed an inversion of T in lead II and/or III and in V4 to V6. After exercise-testing the ECG signs normalized. Other clinical investigations, echocardiography, and in one case heart-catheterization revealed no pathological findings. It is necessary to distinguish these rare ECG findings from pathological ECG changes.
