P-wave dispersion: an update
P-wave dispersion (PWD, Pd or Pdis) is a noninvasive electrocardiographic (ECG) marker for atrial remodeling and predictor for atrial fibrillation (AF). PWD is defined as the difference between the widest and the narrowest P-wave duration recorded from the 12 ECG leads. Increased P-wave duration and PWD reflect prolongation of intraatrial and interatrial conduction time with lack of a well-coor...
متن کاملP-wave Dispersion in Patients with Major Thalassemia
Abstract Background Prolonged P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion indicate interatrial conduction disturbance and early predict arrhythmia especially atrial fibrillation. Iron deposition in the atrial tissue might prolonged the atrial conduction time, and this study evaluated the P-wave prolongation and increased P-Wave dispersion in these patients. Materials and Methods Fifty patients w...
متن کاملQT dispersion and P wave dispersion in patients with fibromyalgia.
OBJECTIVE Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic disease characterized by widespread pain. Somatic complaints associated with the cardiovascular system, such as chest pain and palpitations, are frequently seen in FM patients. P and QT dispersions are simple and inexpensive measurements reflecting the regional heterogeneity of atrial and ventricular repolarization, respectively. QT dispersion can cause ...
متن کاملIncreased P Wave Dispersion in Elite Athletes
BACKGROUND Few studies have been performed on P wave indices in athletes. The aim of this study was to determine the behaviour of maximum P wave duration (Pmax), minimum P wave duration (Pmin) and P wave dispersion (PWD) in young high performance athletes, as well as the relationship of PWD with training history, heart rate (HR) and echocardiographic parameters. METHODS We performed a cross-s...
متن کاملP-wave dispersion measurement: Methodological considerations
Well-known difficulties in defining P-wave onset and offset may restrict the accuracy and reproducibility of P-wave dispersion measurements. To achieve greater precision in measuring P-wave dispersion, simultaneous digital recording of all 12 ECG leads and onscreen measurement of P wave characteristics is mandatory to examine atrial fibrillation risk.
