    Abstract

    While collecting data from a patient clinicians form an idea of a diagnosis, and this idea may influence their interpretation of further observations in the patient. We conducted a randomised study to determine whether doctors were influenced by their knowledge of changes in serum enzyme concentrations when interpreting electrocardiographic manifestations in patients suspected of having acute myocardial infarction.
