The spatial vectorcardiogram in left bundle branch block.

A Study of the Spatial Vectorcardiogram in Left Bundle Branch Block

A method of vectorcardiography, in which the projections of the spatial veetorcardiogrami in various planes of an equilateral tetrahedron reference system are recorded, has been applied to the study of left bundle branch block. Results suggest that the method employed may provide information relative to the state of the miyocar(liutim and the extent of myocardial lesions which is not evident fr...

Spatial Frank vectorcardiogram in left posterior fascicular block. Criteria and correlation with clinical and electrocardiographic data.

Computer processing of spatial QRS parameters (Frank vectorcardiogram) was used to study left posterior fascicular block. The best set of vectorcardiographic criteria was sought in order to characterise the classic pattern of left posterior fascicular block. Using these criteria, 18 cases were selected from a group of 4600 patients and 340 healthy subjects; isolated left posterior fascicular bl...

The spatial vectorcardiogram in right bundle branch block.

Vector electrocardiographic alterations after percutaneous septal ablation in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Possible anatomic causes.

OBJECTIVE Analyze the dromotropic disturbances (vector-electrocardiographic), and the possible anatomic causes, provoked by selective alcohol injection in the septal branch, for percutaneous treatment, of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. METHODS Ten patients with a mean age of 52.7 years underwent percutaneous septal ablation (PTSA) from october 1998; all in functional class III/IV). ...

Electrocardiogram and Vectorcardiogram in Right Ventricular Hypertrophy and Right Bundle - Branch Block

Wit/i the collaboration of Charles A. Bertrand, M.D., and Frederick R. Mugler, M.D. Electrocardiographic and vectorcardiographic studies on normal subjects and patients with heart disease suggest that criteria for the diagnosis of right ventricular hypertrophy can be improved and simplified. This report proposes new criteria for the electrocardiographic diagnosis of right ventricular hypertroph...
