Simple descriptions Total Right side Left side
Arruda 4 individual steps  46.2%   34.3%   70.6% 
1. I (Δ < +) or V1 (RS > 1) → AVF (Δ)
2. II (Δ: -)
3. V1 (Δ < +) → AVF (Δ)
4. Remaining → AVF (Δ)

Li 3 sequential steps  92.3%   88.6%   100% 
V1 (RS), V1 (Δ) / I (Δ) → III (Δ)

RS, R/S polarity; Δ, delta wave polarity; < +, ± or -; /, followed by the different result of previous step in the same level of algorithm; →, next step only following by the one of the previous step.
