§ ECG changes are related with
heart chamber enlargement
Left Ventricular
Right Ventricular
SV1 + RV5 or RV6 > 35 mm
-R/S ratio >1 in right precordial R waves in aVL 11-13 mm
-RAD Slight ST depression or T wave
- T wav e i nv e rs i o n i n r i g h t t o m i d inversion (strain type)
precordial lead. LAD
ECG criteria of chamber enlargement
q Ventricular hypertrophy vs dilatation no spesific ECG criteria to
differentiate
q Biatrial enlargement :
Presence of LAD and RAD criteria in same ECG
Broad and notched P wave in lead I,II, prominent negative component
in V1, initial force tall in lead II.
ECG criteria of chamber enlargement
q Biventricular enlargement
Presence of LVH and RVH in the same ECG.
