Core Tip

Core Tip: Atrial septal defect (ASD) is characterized by its slow clinical progression, often remaining asymptomatic in children and young adults until diagnosed later in life. Early screening and timely treatment for ASDs are essential. The heightened sensitivity of the crochetage sign in ASDs emphasizes the need for cost-effective, rapid, and non-invasive body surface electrocardiography for early screening, particularly in underserved areas. This editorial seeks to illustrate the impact of ASD on the cardiac conduction system, specifically focusing on the crochetage sign, through a discussion of the recently published case report.
