Left ventricular hypertrophy can be diagnosed on ECG with good specificity. When the myocardium is hypertrophied, there is a larger mass of myocardium for electrical activation to pass through ...

Pathologic left ventricular hypertrophy can occur in the setting of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy even in the absence of increased afterload. The ECG findings of left ventricular ...

Objective: To review the accuracy of electrocardiography in screening for left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with hypertension. Design Systematic review of studies of test accuracy of six ...

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 ...

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

Hypertensive patients who develop electrocardiographic strain despite treatment to control their blood pressure are at an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. These findings ...

and left ventricular hypertrophy. The model has now been released publicly to help "encourage the research community to move toward flexible, multi-task, multi-view approaches for echocardiogram ...

Regardless of extreme body surface area (BSA), no asymptomatic athlete with a negative family history of sudden cardiac death and a normal ECG presented a maximal wall thickness >14 mm. Established ...

A doctor would typically diagnose arrhythmia or ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on an ECG, with presumptions for left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and electrolyte imbalance.
