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 ...

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 ...

Athletes with an LVH >12 mm and an abnormal ECG Of the 17 athletes with LVH, only 2 (0.2%) demonstrated a wall thickness that exceeded 13 mm (table 2; athletes 1 and 2). However, both athletes also ...

The resting electrocardiogram (ECG) furnishes essential information for the diagnosis, management, and prognostic evaluation of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Almost any ECG ...

These common training-related ECG alterations are physiological adaptations to regular exercise, considered normal variants in athletes, and do not require further evaluation in asymptomatic athletes.

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.
