QT dispersion and P wave dispersion in patients with fibromyalgia. [PDF]

Eur J Rheumatol, 2016
Abstract Objective: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic disease characterized by widespread pain. Somatic complaints associated with the cardiovascular system, such as chest pain and palpitations, are frequently seen in FM patients. P and QT dispersions are simple and inexpensive measurements reflecting the regional heterogeneity of atrial and ventricular ...

P wave dispersion in patients with erectile dysfunction. [PDF]

Interv Med Appl Sci, 2019
Background and aimsP wave dispersion (PWD) has been reported to be a non-invasive electrocardiographic predictor for atrial fibrillation. The aim of this study is to evaluate PWD between men with erectile dysfunction (ED) and healthy controls in order to investigate whether PWD was prolonged in patients with ED and related to severity of the disease ...

P wave dispersion in obsessive-compulsive disorder. [PDF]

Indian J Psychiatry, 2015
P wave dispersion (Pd) is defined as the difference between the maximum and the minimum P wave duration. It has recently been associated with increased anxiety levels, thereby predisposing affected individuals to fatal heart disease. Despite of evidence of this autonomous nervous system (ANS) relationship, there are no electrocardiography (ECG) studies

Increased p wave dispersion in elite athletes. [PDF]

Indian Pacing Electrophysiol J, 2011
Few studies have been performed on P wave indices in athletes. The aim of this study was to determine the behaviour of maximum P wave duration (Pmax), minimum P wave duration (Pmin) and P wave dispersion (PWD) in young high performance athletes, as well as the relationship of PWD with training history, heart rate (HR) and echocardiographic parameters ...

The true nature of P wave dispersion

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2020
The electrophysiological activity of the heart is recorded and presented in form of electrocardiography (ECG). In 1998, the concept of P wave dispersion as the risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence was introduced. It was calculated as the difference between the longest and the shortest P wave.To prove that the P wave dispersion is an ...

P wave dispersion and maximum P wave duration are independently associated with rapid renal function decline. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
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 Dispersion in Acute Pancreatitis

Archives of Basic and Clinical Research
Objective: Cardiac complications and electrocardiographic anomalies are frequently seen in acute pancreatitis (AP). Also, an increased P-wave dispersion (PWD) is accepted as a predictor of atrial fibrillation.

QT interval and P wave dispersion in slow coronary flow phenomenon [PDF]

ARYA Atherosclerosis, 2018
BACKGROUND: Slow coronary flow (SCF) phenomenon is an angiographic finding which is defined as slow contrast passage through coronary arteries which may predispose patients to serious cardiac complications such as fatal arrhythmias.

P-wave dispersion: What we know till now? [PDF]

JRSM Cardiovasc Dis, 2016
P-wave dispersion is defined as the difference between the maximum and the minimum P-wave duration recorded from multiple different-surface ECG leads. It has been known that increased P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion reflect prolongation of intraatrial and interatrial conduction time and the inhomogeneous propagation of sinus impulses, which are ...
