    Lehigh Valley Health Network has 981 licensed-acute beds on its three campuses. [3] [4] Its flagship hospital, Lehigh Valley Hospital–Cedar Crest, located at 1200 South Cedar Crest Boulevard in Allentown, is the state's third-largest hospital, Pennsylvania's first Level One Trauma Center, and one of two Level One trauma centers in the Lehigh Valley, the state's third-most populous ...

    Left ventricular hypertrophy with secondary repolarization abnormalities as seen on ECG Histopathology of (a) normal myocardium and (b) myocardial hypertrophy. Scale bar indicates 50 μm. Gross pathology of left ventricular hypertrophy. Left ventricle is at right in image, serially sectioned from apex to near base.

    Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest, commonly referred to as Lehigh Valley Hospital, is a hospital located at 1200 South Cedar Crest Boulevard in Allentown, Pennsylvania.It is the largest hospital in the Lehigh Valley region of eastern Pennsylvania, and the third-largest hospital in the state after UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia.

  5. Left ventricular mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_ventricular_mass

    [1] [4] left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as an abnormal increase in LVM, an important independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] LVM is also an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease even within the normal limits. [ 8 ]

  6. Left anterior fascicular block - Wikipedia

    It also makes the electrocardiographic diagnosis of LVH more complicated, because both may cause a large R wave in lead aVL. Therefore, to call LVH on an EKG in the setting of an LAHB you should see the presence of a "strain pattern" when you are relying on limb lead criteria to diagnose LVH. [citation needed]

  7. Ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_hypertrophy

    LVH may interfere with heart functionality in a number of ways. Before progression to a dilated phenotype, mechanical obstruction of the outflow tract can occur, leading to reduced cardiac output. Additionally, increased fibrosis of the ventricle can result in a failure to relax appropriately which impairs cardiac filling and may lead to ...

  8. Strain pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_pattern

    In electrocardiography, a strain pattern is a well-recognized marker for the presence of anatomic left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in the form of ST depression and T wave inversion on a resting ECG. [1] It is an abnormality of repolarization and it has been associated with an adverse prognosis in a variety heart disease patients.

  9. QRS complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRS_complex

    Poor R wave progression is commonly attributed to anterior myocardial infarction, but it may also be caused by left bundle branch block, Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome, right and left ventricular hypertrophy, or a faulty ECG recording technique. [11]
