Infos

Electrocardiographic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Looking Beyond Left Ventricular Mass offers a fresh perspective on the use of electrocardiograms (ECGs) for treating left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). The book bridges the gap between recent research findings and clinical practice, aiming to advance the technology into the future. It emphasizes the unique insights that ECGs provide regarding the cardiac electric field in LVH patients, pushing for a shift in the traditional diagnostic approach of ECG for LVH. The book addresses the need to reconsider classical diagnostic paradigms and focuses on false-negative ECG results that actually contain valuable, often overlooked information.These results can be crucial for diagnostics, selecting targeted therapy, and assessing cardiovascular risk. By maximizing the potential of ECG technology, the book aims to enhance patient outcomes and bring innovation to cardiac healthcare. - 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 "e;false negative"e; ECG results in LVH diagnosis, thereby preventing the dangers of incorrect evaluation and increased risk of death
