Your question is ...Thanks for your comment Mostafa. Your question is valid — but it is more "concrete" than it is possible to answer. The ECG is NOT an optimal tool to assess for chamber enlargement. Specificity decreases in younger subjects in the absence of ST-T wave changes of "strain" — so I'd have to answer "Maybe" to your question (and I'd have to see an actual tracing to know for certain). And if ever this comes up and one does want to know for certain if there is or is not LVH — then an Echo (and not an ECG) is the answer. The criteria I cite merely provide a framework. The actual ECG in context with the clinical scenario are needed to determine the likelihood of true LVH — and even after doing that, you may be left with an uncertain answer (because the ECG is far from a perfect tool for assessing LVH — esp. in younger subjects without LV "strain" ... ).ECG Interpretationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02309020028961384995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3364570834099131201.post-44501547500770494442015-09-23T07:24:26.080-04:002015-09-23T07:24:26.080-04:00As i understand that LVH need three criteria I)Ag...As i understand that LVH need three criteria I)Age more than 35 II) voltage criteria III) Strain <br />But what if we have a patient less than 35 year who has LVH Voltage criteria more than 53 mm ( deepest S wave in V1,V2 and tallest R wave in V5 ,V6 ≥53 mm) , Do we need LV strain criteria in those young people(< 35 year) in order to define LVH ? <br />iAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475696764299734880noreply@blogger.com
