Increased P Wave Dispersion and Maximum P Wave Duration after Hemodialysis [PDF]
Background: Atrial fibrillation is a frequent arrhythmia in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The consequences of hemodialysis on P wave durations and P wave dispersion have not been fully understood. The objective of this study was to study the effect of dialysis on P wave maximum (Pmax), P wave minimum (Pmin), and P wave dispersion (Pd). Methods: We

Electrocardiographic P-wave Indices as a Useful Tool to Predict Successful Percutaneous Balloon Mitral Valvotomy in Patients with Mitral Stenosis [PDF]
Introduction: Patients with hemodynamically significant mitral stenosis (MS) have prolonged P-wave duration and increased P-wave dispersion (PWD) that decreases after successful percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy (PBMV).

Cardiac heterogeneity in patients with chronic urticaria; A perusal of P wave and QT dispersions
Data on how the heart is affected in Chronic Urticaria (CU), a common annoying chronic dermatological disease, is quite limited. The electrocardiographic parameters; P wave dispersion (PWD) and QT dispersion (QTD) have been consistently reported to be ...

P wave dispersion and maximum P wave duration are independently associated with rapid renal function decline. [PDF]
The P wave parameters measured by 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) are commonly used as noninvasive tools to assess for left atrial enlargement. There are limited studies to evaluate whether P wave parameters are independently associated with decline in ...

P‐wave duration and P‐wave dispersion in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
AbstractBackground:P‐wave dispersion (PWD) has been reported to be associated with inhomogeneous and discontinuous propagation of sinus impulses. In the present study, we aimed to investigate PWD in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.Method:The study population consisted of 72 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and 72 healthy control subjects.

P‐Wave dispersion increases in prehypertension
Prolongation of P-wave durations and increased P-wave dispersion are independent predictors of atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is the most common arrhythmia of the general population. Prehypertension, including those with systolic blood pressure ranging from 120-139 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ranging from 80-89 mmHg was described by JNC7 ...

QTC Dispersion and P-Wave Dispersion during Migraine Attacks
The aim of this study was to investigate increase of QTc dispersion and P-wave dispersion during migraine attacks. Fifty-five patients (16–65 years of age, 49 women, six men) with migraine were included in our study. Heart rate, QTc interval, maximum and minimum QTc interval, QTc dispersion, maximum and minimum P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion ...
