[Left bu;ndle branch block with right axial deviation. Clinic and electro-vectorcardiographic study (author's transl)]. 1975

P Alboni, and C Longhini, and C Malacarne, and G Giovannini

Eleven patients whose ECG and VCG showed a left bundle branch block with right axial deviation (between + 90 degrees and + 150 degrees) were studied with clinical and radiological investigations. All of them had pathological abnormalities of cardiopulmonary apparatus and cardiac enlargement, but only one had congestive heart failure. The right axial deviation was due in one case to the vertical position of the heart in the chest and in three cases to conduction defects of the cardiac impulse through the left bundle branch. In the remaining cases the right axial deviation was dubious. The authors present and discuss all possible factors which could cause such deviation of QRS axis in the left bundle branch block.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead

D006332 Cardiomegaly Enlargement of the HEART, usually indicated by a cardiothoracic ratio above 0.50. Heart enlargement may involve the right, the left, or both HEART VENTRICLES or HEART ATRIA.
