Several ECG markers of atrial or AV nodal mechanical/substrate/electrical conduction abnormalities have been related to both incident AF and stroke. P terminal force ...

Sudden death can occur as a consequence of cardiac-conduction abnormalities in the neuromuscular disease myotonic dystrophy type 1. The determinants of the risk of sudden death remain imprecise. We ...

Following its successful contribution to the American Association of Equine Practitioners-led project focused on locomotion ...

At an electrophysiology meeting one would expect a lot of interest in the high-tech and cutting edge. Yet one constant I find at European meetings is the popularity of sports cardiology, a decidedly ...

The rhythm is sinus with occasional premature atrial beats and left atrial abnormality. The frontal plane axis is –30° and the R wave in AVL is greater than 20 mV (note standardization deflections are ...

A new study has linked prolonged P-wave duration to increased risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD), independent of cardiovascular risk factors and atrial fibrillation. 1 This suggests P-wave duration ...

ECG aberrancy means the heartbeat does not follow the usual conduction system of the heart. Atrial fibrillation with ECG aberrancy means people have an irregular heart rhythm with abnormal conduction.

This ECG shows normal sinus rhythm. There are small narrow Q waves in II-III-AVF that do not fulfill the criteria for “pathologic” Q waves (> 0.2 second or > 5 mV). The QTc (Fridericia’s formula) is ...

Researchers report that structural or functional abnormalities within the heart’s left atrium, with or without symptoms, may increase a person’s risk of developing dementia later in life by 35%. The ...
