Abstract Objective To know the electrocardiogram(ECG) information of elderly residents in aged welfare organizations, in order to provide a reference for preventing and treating geriatric diseases. Methods By 12 lead CTM 8000 ECG telemonitor, 1 992 cases of ECG data were collected from the elderly residents over 60 years old in four aged welfare organizations of Shanghai, during seven months from April 1 to October 31 in 2014. Results Among 1 992 cases of ECGs, there were 376(18.9%) normal or basically normal cases while abnormalities were found in 1 616 ECGs, accounting for 81.1%, significantly higher than the general abnormality detection rate in ECG telemonitoring both at home and abroad. Abnormal ECGs mainly included 185 cases(9.3%) of atrial fibrillation, 179 cases(9.0%) of atrial premature beats, 117 cases(5.8%) of ventricular premature beats, and 1 135 other abnormal ECGs(including acute myocardial infarction), accounting for 57.0%. Among other abnormal ECGs, ischemic changes with ST segment elevation were found in 12 cases. Additionally, the monitoring results indicated atrial fibrillation was a common risk factor of cardiovascular diseases for elderly residents in aged welfare organizations.Conclusion Twelve lead ECG telemonitoring system can capture abnormal ECG information of elderly residents in aged welfare organizations in time, especially performs well in the prevention and treatment of atrial fibrillation or acute ischemic diseases, and remote disposal of severe cases, etc. Its great advantages help patients with early diagnosis and timely therapy.
