    • Is RBBB a limitation factor in the ECG diag-nosis of RVH?

      In conclusion, although the presence of RBBB is known to be a limitation factor in the ECG diag-nosis of RVH, the occurrence in all leads others than I, aVL and V5–V6 of both prominent electri-cal vectors directed frontwards and rightwards and widespread secondary ST-T changes may be considered as strong indicators of RVH.


    • Can echocardiography help detect RV dysfunction?

      It is hoped that this document will lead to further work in establishing normal ranges in larger populations and that the application of the values included will enhance the value of echocardiography in recognizing RV dysfunction in clinical practice, in improving disease detection and in patient follow-up.



    • Is RVH a pulmonary disease or a congenital heart disease?

      The actual uncertainty in identifying RVH in the picture of pulmonary disease mainly comes from three factors. First, the sensitivity of the ECG criteria for RVH is generally low, and there is a sort of gradient of accuracy from congenital heart disease to primary pulmonary hypertension to chronic lung disease.

ECG Lead V I is the most proximal to the anteriorly positioned right ventricle and therefore shows exclusively the direct and specif­ ic alterations of RVH, demonstrating the augmented RV vec­ tors, directed anteriorly and to the right.

      RV WALL THICKNESS. RV wall thickness is measured in diastole, pref-erably from the subcostal view, using either M-mode or two-dimen-sional (2D) imaging (Figure 5). Alternatively, the left parasternal view is also used for measuring RV wall thickness. Thickness > 5 mm indicates RV hypertrophy (RVH) and may suggest RV

      The diagnosis of right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) in adulthood remains a challenge for the clinical cardiologist. We present an ECG tracing obtained in a 70-year- old woman with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and respiratory failure in whom RVH was con- firmed by echocardiography.

      and RV hypertrophy. Arrhythmias of RV origin, another cardinal feature of ARVC/D, was designated a minor criterion because of its occurrence in other diseases, particularly idiopathic RV outflow tract tachycardia. Fur-thermore, the 1994 criteria focused on RV disease mani-festations and stipulated the absence of or only mild LV
