Produktbeschreibung

Electrocardiographic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Looking Beyond Left Ventricular Mass provides an innovative perspective on electrocardiograms (ECGs) usage for evaluation of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). It links contemporary research results with clinical practice in order to advance application of this cornerstone technology. Specifically, it highlights how standard ECGs can provide unique information on the cardiac electric field in LVH patients.This book recognizes and fulfills the urgent need to change the classical diagnostic paradigms of ECG diagnosis in LVH. To do so, it turns attention to so-called false-negative ECG findings that in truth provide valuable information that largely overlooked. When used to their fullest potential, these results can be used for enhanced diagnosis, selection of targeted therapy and cardiovascular risk assessment. - Provides an understanding of the underlying electrical phenomena in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH), along with their diagnostic and prognostic importance - Presents new insights regarding the electrical properties of hypertrophied myocardium, indicating future research and clinical applications - Addresses controversies around so-called "false negative" ECG results in LVH diagnosis, thereby preventing the dangers of incorrect evaluation and increased risk of death
