Incidence of heart failure in relation to QRS duration during antihypertensive therapy: the LIFE study
Journal of Hypertension, 10/26/09

Okin PM et al. – Persistence or development of a prolonged QRS during antihypertensive therapy is associated with an increased likelihood of new–onset heart failure, independent of blood pressure lowering, treatment modality and regression of electrocardiographic LVH in patients with essential hypertension.
