In 1923, Wilson and Finch performed a simple experiment in which ice water was ingested and an ECG was recorded.1 The result led them to describe T wave changes as either primary, arising “from disturbances in the function of fairly large regions of ventricular muscle,” or “secondary to changes in the form of the QRS complex” and persisting as long as the QRS changes were present. Knowledge of primary T wave changes has expanded over the years to incorporate those induced by structural alterations such as hypertrophy, as well as pharmacologic and electrolytic influences and more recently, channelopathies. Examples of secondary T wave changes include those induced by conduction abnormalities, ventricular arrhythmias, and myocardial infarction.
But every story has caveats: one for the categorization of T wave changes as primary or secondary was noted by several groups of individuals and formalized by Mauricio Rosenbaum (Figure 1).2 The caveat was a change in the T wave that appeared at first to be secondary (as it was initiated by a change in the QRS complex) but persisted long after the QRS had normalized, s
