Note that left atrial enlargement is not able to be diagnosed in the presence of atrial fibrillation because this rhythm is defined by erratic atrial activity and no visible P wave on the ECG.

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 ...

When right atrial enlargement occurs, it does not take longer for cardiac action potentials to travel through the atrial myocardium (similar to left atrial ... The ECG criteria for diagnosing ...

AV, atrioventricular; bpm, beats per minute; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy; RBBB ... of the second heart sound because IRBBB can be an associated ECG finding in patients with an atrial septal ...

For high-blood-pressure patients, preventing or reducing enlarged heart (left ventricular hypertrophy, LVH) reduces risk of atrial fibrillation ... electrocardiograph (ECG) using Cornell voltage ...

markers of abnormal atrial conduction and left atrial abnormality should be investigated for the purposes of ECG-based SCD risk assessment. Effective SCD risk models will likely require a ...

A significant and progressive increase in aortic, left and right atrial ... of sudden cardiac death and a normal ECG presented a maximal wall thickness >14 mm. Established upper limits for ...

Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia worldwide and prevalence is expected to continue rising at an exponential rate with an aging population and increasing rates of obesity ...

P area and signal-averaged P wave late atrial potential are strong predictors of AF incidence and possibly of stroke incidence. ECG left ventricular hypertrophy is strongly associated with stroke ...
