Abstract
Chapman's (electrographic) sign is of a notch on the ascending limb of the R wave in leads I, aVL and V6. It has been used in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI) during left bundle branch block (LBBB) and cardiac pacing. A number of studies have yielded divergent results about its diagnostic usefulness. However, the sign can be helpful in the diagnosis of MI during LBBB or pacing in the absence of other manifestations of MI.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Electrocardiology is devoted exclusively to clinical and experimental studies of the electrical activities of the heart. It seeks to contribute significantly to the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis and the effective treatment, prevention, or delay of heart disease. Editorial contents include electrocardiography, vectorcardiography, arrhythmias, membrane action potential, cardiac pacing, monitoring defibrillation, instrumentation, drug effects, and computer applications.
