Electrocardiogram Performance in the Diagnosis of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Hypertensive Patients With Left Bundle Branch Block
BACKGROUND Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events, and its detection usually begins with an electrocardiogram (ECG). OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB) in hypertensive patients in the diagnostic performance of LVH by ECG. METHODS A total of 2,240 hypertensive patients were studied. All of them were ...
متن کاملREGRESSION OF LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY AFTER SUCCESSFUL RENAL TRANSPLANTATION AMONG UREMIC PATIENTS
Recognition of the natural history and responsible leading factors for regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation are very important. The aim of this study was to assess the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation among uremic patients. In this study 27 uremic patients (18 males and 9 females) with an average a...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic Diagnosis of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Comparison with Echocardiography
Background: The present study was conducted to determine the sensitivity and specificity of electrocardiographic criteria for the assessment of left ventricular hypertrophy by comparing it with the gold standard of echocardiography. Methods: Fifty clinically diagnosed patients of LVH were included in this collaborative study of Dept. of Physiology, Army Medical College, Rawalpindi and Departmen...
متن کاملThe orthogonal electrocardiogram in left ventricular hypertrophy.
It has been shown experimentally that three bipolar electrocardiograms from the main axes of the body contain as much or more information about QRS forces than 12-lead electrocardiograms (Frank et al., 1955; Schmitt and Simonson, 1955; and Newman et al., 1955). A clinical comparison of such a three-lead system and the 12 conventional leads has not yet been reported, and one aim of the present s...
متن کاملechocardiographic assessment of inappropriate left ventricular mass and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with diastolic dysfunction
background: early diagnosis of left ventricular mass (lvm) inappropriateness and left ventricular hypertrophy (lvh) can result in preventing diastolic left ventricular dysfunction and its related morbidity and mortality. this study was performed to determine if diastolic dysfunction is associated with lvh and inappropriate lvm. methods: one hundred and twenty five uncomplicated hypertensi...
