Determinants and Improvement of Electrocardiographic Diagnosis of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in a Black African Population
BACKGROUND: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a major cardiovascular risk factor. The electrocardiogram (ECG) has been shown to be a poor tool in detecting LVH due to cardiac and extracardiac factors. We studied the determinants and possibility of improving the test performance of the ECG in a g...
