Determining LVH 1 - Left Ventricular Hypertrophy


Step 1

Determining the presence of LVH is a fairly simple and straight forward three-step process.

  • Refer to leads V1 & V2
  • Measure and select the deepest ventricular depolarization of the 2 views (not including aberrant complexes)
  • Measure from the isoelectric line down to the tip of the deepest QS complex.
  • Measure from the isoelectric line down to the tip of the deepest QS complex.
  • Write this number down
