  2. Pulmonary embolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_embolism

    An ECG may show signs of right heart strain or acute cor pulmonale in cases of large PEs – the classic signs are a large S wave in lead I, a large Q wave in lead III, and an inverted T wave in lead III (S1Q3T3), which occurs in 12–50% of people with the diagnosis, yet also occurs in 12% without the diagnosis.

  3. Right heart strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_heart_strain

    An important potential finding with echo is McConnell's sign, where only the RV apex wall contracts; [7] it is specific for right heart strain and typically indicates a large PE. [8] On an electrocardiogram (ECG), there are multiple ways RV strain can be demonstrated. A finding of S1Q3T3 [b] is an insensitive [10] sign of right heart strain. [11]

  4. Obstructive shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstructive_shock

    Pulmonary embolism similarly presents with shortness of breath and hypoxia. Chest pain worse with inspiration is frequently seen. Chest pain can also be similar to a heart attack. This is due to the right ventricular stress and ischemia that can occur in PE. [13] Other symptoms are syncope and hemoptysis. [14] DVT is a common cause.

    Eponymous medical signs are those that are named after a person or persons, usually the physicians who first described them, but occasionally named after a famous patient. This list includes other eponymous entities of diagnostic significance; i.e. tests, reflexes, etc.

    What Are the Signs of Pulmonary Embolism? The symptoms of PE can vary depending on the person and the severity of the blood clot, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Some people don’t have any ...

  7. Pulmonary heart disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_heart_disease

    The pathophysiology of pulmonary heart disease (cor pulmonale) has always indicated that an increase in right ventricular afterload causes RV failure (pulmonary vasoconstriction, anatomic disruption/pulmonary vascular bed and increased blood viscosity are usually involved [1]), however most of the time, the right ventricle adjusts to an overload in chronic pressure.

  8. Right axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_axis_deviation

    Bifascicular block is a combination of right bundle branch block and either left anterior fascicular block or left posterior fascicular block. Conduction to the ventricle would therefore be via the remaining fascicle. The ECG will show typical features of RBBB plus either left or right axis deviation. [7] [8]
