Keywords
ECG, Elderly EHPAD's resident, Cardiac desease
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to evaluate the interest and the workability of ECG teletranmission in EHPAD in Île-de-France. ECG for the elderly is beneficial to detect or monitor cardiovascular disease.
Detailed description
Main objectives : * Evaluate the workability of ECG uploaded by a caregiver who was trained before * Evaluate the prevalence of ECG anomalies highlighted thanks to the realisation of an uploaded ECG (supraventricular and ventricular rhythm disorder and coronary pathology) Secondaries objectives : * Evaluate the prevalence of unknown ECG anomalies and thus determine the number of new diagnostics highlighted thanks to uploaded ECG * Evaluate the prevalence of ECG iatrogenic anomalies The study is observational, multicentre and prospective. It is going to include 3211 elderly living in EHPAD in Île-de-France. 150 EHPAD or involved in the study, they are split in two groups : 100 EHPAD will receive ECG and 50 EHPAD will not. This last group will enable to lead a comparative analysis, only global data about death will be collected. The study will last 36 months with 12 months of participation for each resident.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment of teletransmetted electrocardiogram (ECG) feasability (number of ECGs interpretable) | 12 months | An interpretable ECG is defined by an absence of parasite, a stable baseline, an absence of argument of a malposition of electrodes, an unwinding paper speed: 25 mm / sec, a calibration of the amplitude |
| Assessment of prevalence of anomalies highlighted by performing an electrocardiogram. | 12 months | The prevalence of anomalies highlighted by performing an electrocardiogram: supra-ventricular rhythm disorders, ventricular rhythm disorder and coronary pathologies. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Assessment of commorbidity risk and life expectancy according Charlson score. | 12 months |
| Assessment of prevalence of unknown and iatrogenic anomalies according to the electrocardiogram | 12 months |
