wakehealth.edu Objective To determine if there is a significant difference in the predictive abilities of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) detected by ECG-LVH versus LVH ascertained by cardiac ...

ECG plays an important role in detection of several stroke risk factors/predictors including atrial fibrillation and left ventricular hypertrophy; both are components of the Framingham Stroke Risk ...

Objective To identify adolescent athletes with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and differentiate physiological LVH from HCM ... Results 12 (1.2%) athletes, all males had LVWT ≥12 mm (12–15) and ...

ECG left ventricular hypertrophy is strongly associated with stroke independent of common stroke risk factors including hypertension. The mechanisms are currently elusive. Premature complexes ...

and patients with left or right ventricular hypertrophy (LVH or RVH). From 333 different ECG measurements an attempt was made to select optimal discriminators of the various pathological entities. The ...

In fact, up to 60% of athletes demonstrate ECG changes (in isolation or in combination) such as sinus bradycardia, sinus arrhythmia, first-degree atrioventricular (AV) block, early repolarisation, ...

A more severe hypertrophy and the presence of left ventricular outflow obstruction are considered diagnostic of HCM, though stress echocardiography has not been consistently used in VSB. Mitral ...

To be distinguished from aneurysm of an aortic sinus (Valsalva) is the rare condition in which an abnormal channel begins in the ascending aorta (above the right coronary artery), bypasses the aortic ...

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly common across the heart failure population. Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a feared complication that can occur in the early post-operative ...

Background: Electrocardiographic (ECG) features of left bundle branch (LBB ... prolonged septal-to-posterior-wall motion delay, and extended ventricular electromechanical delays. Electroanatomical ...

This results in the P waves (atrial depolarizations) being completely unrelated to the QRS complexes (ventricular depolarizations) ― meaning the P waves occur at one rate and the QRS complexes ...
