Abstract
|
|
|
A comparative study was done between electrocardiographic criteria and increased left atrial volume and pressure in 56 cases with matral valvular heart disease.
The resultls were as follows:
1. Electro cardiographic criteria showed more significant correlation with increases in left atrial volume than increases in left atrial pressure.
2. Electrocardiographic criteria showing significant corrleation with left atrial enlargement were as follows:
a. Negative terminal forces in lead V,
b. P wave duration in lead II
c. Negative terminal P/PR segment in lead V,
d. P duration/PR segment in lead II.
3. Electrocardiographic criteria were useful as subsidiary diagnostic methods for assessment of left atrial enlargement and its severity.
