The electrocardiogram in left ventricular hypertrophy: past and future
Journal of Electrocardiology, 11/04/09

Estes EH et al. – Although the electrocardiogram (ECG) has been displaced to a secondary role in the prediction of left ventricular mass, ECG/LVH has been shown to be a strong predictor of morbidity and early mortality. There are strong clues that each of the parameters in ECG/LVH is related to cardiac contractility and ejection. It is suggested that research be redirected to an exploration of these relationships and predicted that this will lead to both a better understanding of this venerable tool and an improvement in its usefulness to the clinician and patient.
