  2. Left axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_axis_deviation

    The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane.. In electrocardiography, left axis deviation (LAD) is a condition wherein the mean electrical axis of ventricular contraction of the heart lies in a frontal plane direction between −30° and −90°.

  3. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmia

    [3] [7] Bradyarrhythmias are due to sinus node dysfunction or atrioventricular conduction disturbances. [8] Arrhythmias are due to problems with the electrical conduction system of the heart. [2] A number of tests can help with diagnosis, including an electrocardiogram (ECG) and Holter monitor. [5] Many arrhythmias can be effectively treated. [2]

    The diagnosis of WPW occurs with a combination of palpitations and when an electrocardiogram (ECG) show a short PR interval and a delta wave. [3] It is a type of pre-excitation syndrome. [3] WPW syndrome may be monitored or treated with either medications or an ablation (destroying the tissues) such as with radiofrequency catheter ablation. [4]

    Since 1988 VA disability claim decisions have been subject to federal court review. Disability ratings theoretically represent a veteran's "average impairment in earnings capacity", on a scale from 0 to 100. Veterans who file a disability claim due to PTSD almost always receive a compensation and pension examination by VA-employed or VA ...

  7. Premature atrial contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_atrial_contraction

    Normal sinus rhythm and ectopic beats - premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and premature atrial contractions (PAC) shown on an EKG. Premature atrial contractions are typically diagnosed with an electrocardiogram, Holter monitor, long-term continuous monitor, cardiac event monitor, or with a smartwatch with an ECG functionality. [citation ...

  8. Sinus node dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_node_dysfunction

    The ECG shows AV-junctional rhythm resulting in bradycardia at around 46 beats per minute. This ECG from the same patient shows atrial fibrillation at around 126 beats per minute. The most common complication of sinus node dysfunction is the development of tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome with abnormal atrial rhythms such as atrial tachycardia ...

  9. Mitral regurgitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_regurgitation

    There are many diagnostic tests that have abnormal results in the presence of MR. These tests suggest the diagnosis of MR and may indicate to the physician that further testing is warranted. For instance, the electrocardiogram (ECG) in long-standing MR may show evidence of left atrial enlargement and left ventricular dilatation.
