Abstract
Electrocardiographic repolarization abnormalities do not always indicate cardiovascular disease and life-threatening conditions. Therefore, an integrated approach, case follow-up and cooperation of functional medicine practitioners, cardiologists and general practitioners are needed. The spectrum of conditions leading to non-ischemic ST elevation or depression can be associated with both electrolyte disturbances and various extracardiac disorders. Modern electrocardiographic diagnosis and differential approach are necessary to reduce the risk of life-threatening conditions in this patient population.
