Abstract
Determinar el nivel de conocimiento sobre electrocardiografía clínica respecto a ECG normal y anormal, en los internos de medicina de la Universidad Nacional de Trujillo - 2022.
Materiales y Métodos. Estudio observacional de corte transversal, cuya muestra estuvo conformada por internos de medicina de la Universidad Nacional de Trujillo del periodo 2022, a quienes se aplicó un cuestionario validado. Para el análisis estadístico, se utilizó la prueba Chi cuadrado.
Resultados. Participaron 80 internos de medicina. El 13.7% de la población tuvo un nivel de conocimiento bueno sobre la interpretación del ECG normal; el 43.8%, un nivel regular; 42.5%, un nivel deficiente. Se encontró una asociación significativa (p<0.05) entre el nivel de conocimiento de ECG normal y la asistencia a cursos extracurriculares de interpretación electrocardiográfica. Respecto al nivel de conocimiento sobre ECG anormal, el 100% de la población obtuvo un nivel subóptimo, no encontrándose una asociación significativa con la asistencia a cursos extracurriculares.
Conclusión. El nivel de conocimientos sobre electrocardiografía clínica respecto al ECG normal fue regular en la mayoría de los internos de medicina de la UNT, mientras que fue subóptimo en toda la población respecto a los ECGs anormales.

Material and Methods. Cross-sectional observational study, whose sample was made up of medical interns from the National University of Trujillo from the period 2022, to whom a validated questionnaire was applied. For statistical analysis, the Chi square test was used. Results. 80 medical interns participated. 13.7% of the population had a good level of knowledge about the interpretation of normal ECG; 43.8%, a regular level; 42.5%, a poor level. A significant association (p<0.05) was found between the level of knowledge of normal ECG and attendance at extracurricular electrocardiographic interpretation courses. Regarding the level of knowledge about abnormal ECG, 100% of the population obtained a suboptimal level, and no significant association was found with attendance at extracurricular courses. Conclusion. The level of knowledge about clinical electrocardiography with respect to normal ECG was fair in the majority of UNT medicine interns, while it was suboptimal in the entire population with respect to abnormal ECGs.
