  2. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy screening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertrophic...

    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy screening is an assessment and testing to detect hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is a way of identifying HCM in immediate relatives of family members diagnosed with HCM, and athletes as part of a sports medical . [ 3 ]

  3. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertrophic_cardiomyopathy

    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM, or HOCM when obstructive) is a condition in which muscle tissues of the heart become thickened without an obvious cause. [8] The parts of the heart most commonly affected are the interventricular septum and the ventricles . [ 10 ]

  4. Left ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    The Cornell voltage criteria [13] for the ECG diagnosis of LVH involve measurement of the sum of the R wave in lead aVL and the S wave in lead V 3. The Cornell criteria for LVH are: S in V 3 + R in aVL > 28 mm (men) S in V 3 + R in aVL > 20 mm (women) The Romhilt-Estes point score system ("diagnostic" >5 points; "probable" 4 points):

    People who have a normal ECG and who are able to exercise, for example, do not merit routine imaging. [13] Imaging tests such as stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging or stress echocardiography can confirm a diagnosis when a person's history, physical exam, ECG and cardiac biomarkers suggest the likelihood of a problem. [13]

  6. Bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    The ECG will show a terminal R wave in lead V1 and a slurred S wave in lead I. Left bundle branch block widens the entire QRS, and in most cases shifts the heart's electrical axis to the left. The ECG will show a QS or rS complex in lead V1 and a monophasic R wave in lead I.

  7. Right ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    Nonetheless, the ECG is used to assist with the diagnosis of RVH. A post mortem study on 51 adult male patients concluded that anatomical RVH may be diagnosed using one or more of the following ECG criteria: [8] Right axis deviation of more than (or equal to) 110° (see hexaxial reference figure) R-wave dominant over S-wave in V1 or V2

    Karla is the shelter's "longest resident." For every shelter dog out there, we just know there is a human who could be their perfect match.

  9. Split S2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_S2

    A split S2 is a finding upon auscultation of the S2 heart sound. [1] It is caused when the closure of the aortic valve (A 2) and the closure of the pulmonary valve (P 2) are not synchronized during inspiration. The second heart sound (S2) is caused by the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves, which causes vibration of the valve leaflets ...
