Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema [PDF]

Thorax, 1974
Edwards, C. W. (1973) . Thorax , 29 , 75-80. Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema . The role of systemic hypertension in 10 emphysematous subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy was investigated. The medial thickness of the internal mammary artery was used as a parameter of raised systemic blood pressure during life.

Diagnostic value of R wave in aVL lead in left ventricular hypertrophy

Universidad Médica Pinareña, 2020
Introduction: left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as the increase in the thickness of the wall or the interventricular septal portion (or both). This entity represents an important risk factor that is related to the increase in mortality.
