Prognostic value of electrocardiographic criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND Many electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) exist, but few studies have compared their relative prognostic value for predicting cardiovascular (CV) mortality. METHODS We analyzed the first ECG on 46950 consecutive veterans. We targeted male outpatients with a body mass index > 20 to avoid confounding by complicating catabolic illnesses and furthe...
متن کاملPrognostic value of a new electrocardiographic method for diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy in essential hypertension.
OBJECTIVES We tested the prognostic value of a new electrocardiographic (ECG) method (Perugia score) for diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in essential hypertension and compared it with five standard methods (Cornell voltage, Framingham criterion, Romhilt-Estes point score, left ventricular strain, Sokolow-Lyon voltage). BACKGROUND Several standard ECG methods for assessment of ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the electrocardiographic criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVE Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular (CV) mortality. This study compared different criteria including Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell, in terms of voltage and voltage-QRS-duration products, as well as point-scoring systems such as the Romhilt-Estes, Perugia and Glasgow-Royal-Infirmary modified Romhilt-Estes score. METHODS Patients undergoing echo...
متن کاملAn analysis of electrocardiographic criteria for determining left ventricular hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVE To determine the most sensitive criterion for the detection of left ventricular hypertrophy according to echocardiographically defined left ventricular mass. METHODS The Sokolow-Lyon voltage, Sokolow-Lyon-Rappaport, Cornell voltage duration product, White-Bock, and Romhilt-Estes point scoring criteria were compared with left ventricular mass index, corrected for body surface, obtain...
متن کاملDiagnostic electrocardiographic dyad criteria of emphysema in left ventricular hypertrophy
BACKGROUND The electrocardiographic diagnostic dyad of emphysema, namely a combination of the frontal vertical P-vector and a narrow QRS duration, can serve as a quasidiagnostic marker for emphysema, with specificity close to 100%. We postulated that the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema may affect the sensitivity of this electrocardiographic criterion given that left ventri...
