2. Left ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_ventricular_hypertrophy

   Primary disease of the muscle of the heart that cause LVH are known as hypertrophic cardiomyopathies, which can lead into heart failure. [citation needed] Long-standing mitral insufficiency also leads to LVH as a compensatory mechanism. [citation needed] LV mass increases with ageing. [4] Associated genes include OGN, osteoglycin.

3. Junctional rhythm - Wikipedia

   Junctional rhythms can present with either bradycardia, a normal heart rate, or tachycardia. [9] The most obvious abnormal finding will be abnormal P waves. One of three options can occur: [12] 1. There are no P waves. This is because of either failure of retrograde flow to the atria or the P wave is hidden in the QRS.

4. Heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure

   Congestive heart failure is a pathophysiological condition in which the heart's output is insufficient to meet the needs of the body and lungs. [10] The term "congestive heart failure" is often used because one of the most common symptoms is congestion or fluid accumulation in the tissues and veins of the lungs or other parts of a person's body ...

5. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   Often, symptoms mimic those of congestive heart failure (esp. activity intolerance and dyspnea), but treatment of each is different. Beta blockers are used in both cases, but treatment with diuretics, a mainstay of CHF treatment, will exacerbate symptoms in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy by decreasing ventricular preload volume and ...

7. Third heart sound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_heart_sound

   This heart sound when present in a child or young adult implies the presence of a supple ventricle that can undergo rapid filling. Conversely, when heard in a middle-aged or older adult, an S 3 is often a sign of disease, indicating increased ventricular filling due to congestive heart failure or severe mitral or tricuspid regurgitation.
