About the Cambridge Heart Microvolt microvolt one-millionth (10-6) of a volt; abbreviated µV. T-Wave Alternans T-wave alternans Cardiology A subtle every-other-beat variation in T waves that is prognostic of Pts at high risk for life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. See Alternans test. Test The Cambridge Heart Microvolt T-Wave Alternans Test measures extremely subtle beat-to-beat fluctuations in a person's heartbeat called T-wave alternans. These tiny heartbeat variations - measured at one millionth of a volt - are detected in any clinical setting where titration titration (tītrā`shən), gradual addition of an acidic solution to a basic solution or vice versa (see acids and bases); titrations are used to determine the concentration of acids or bases in solution. of the heart rate is possible. The preparation for the test consists of placing proprietary sensors on a patient's chest.
