- look at lead 2 , its a good lead to look at for atrial enlargement
LAE left atrial enlargement Correct Ans-- effects the second part of the pwave
-p wave is 2 parts, right atrial depolarization represents the first half
RAE Right Atrial Enlargement Correct Ans--effects the first part of p wave
secondary repolarization abnormalities Correct Ans-- consists of downsloping ST seg & T
wave inversion
- mostly seen in leads over hypertrophied ventricle
- formerly known as a "strain pattern"
Intrinsicoid Deflection Correct Ans-- the duration of time from the beginning of the qrs
complex to the peak of the R wave
- it is typically not measured in the precordial leads
- normal <35ms in V1, <45ms in
, Exam cct- Questions and Answers 100% Correct
- usually a sign of Ventricular Hypertrophy (usually left)
tall R waves +/- secondary repolarization abnormalities are found in ___ leads for RVH and
___ leads for LVH Correct Ans-v1-v2 RVH / I, avL,v5,v6 LV
usually deep S waves are found in ___ leads for RVH and ___ leads for LVH Correct Ans-I,
avL,v5,v6 RVH / v1, v2 LVH
axis deviation for RVH & LVH Correct Ans-rightward of +90deg RVH / leftward of -30deg
LVH
atrial abnormalities for RVH & LVH Correct Ans-RAE for RVH&LAE for LVH
conduction abnormalities for RVH & LVH Correct Ans-Rbbb(complete or not) RVH & Lbbb
(complete or not) LVH
other abnormalities for RVH&LVH Correct Ans-poor r wave progression for RVH & delayed
intrinsicoid deflection for LVH
3 types of diagnostic criteria for LVH Correct Ans-1. sokolow-lyon criteria
2. Cornell Criteria
3. Romhilt-Estes Point system
