  2. Left atrial enlargement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_atrial_enlargement

    Signs and symptoms. Left atrial enlargement can be mild, moderate or severe depending on the extent of the underlying condition. Although other factors may contribute, left atrium size has been found to be a predictor of mortality due to both cardiovascular issues as well as all-cause mortality. Research suggests that left atrium size as ...

  3. Left atrial volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_atrial_volume

    The left atrial volume is commonly measured by echocardiography or magnetic resonance tomography. It is calculated from biplane recordings with the equation: where A 4 c and A 2 c denote LA areas in 4- and 2-chamber views respectively, and L corresponds to the shortest long-axis length measured in either views. [1]

  4. Premature atrial contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_atrial_contraction

    Premature atrial contraction (PAC), also known as atrial premature complexes (APC) or atrial premature beats (APB), are a common cardiac dysrhythmia characterized by premature heartbeats originating in the atria. While the sinoatrial node typically regulates the heartbeat during normal sinus rhythm, PACs occur when another region of the atria ...

  5. Sinus bradycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_bradycardia

    lightheadedness. dizziness. hypotension. vertigo. syncope. Diagnostic method. electrocardiogram. Sinus bradycardia is a sinus rhythm with a reduced rate of electrical discharge from the sinoatrial node, resulting in a bradycardia, a heart rate that is lower than the normal range (60–100 beats per minute for adult humans). [1][2]

  6. Sinus node dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_node_dysfunction

    Sinus node dysfunction (SND), also known as sick sinus syndrome (SSS), is a group of abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) usually caused by a malfunction of the sinus node, the heart's primary pacemaker. [1][2] Tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome is a variant of sick sinus syndrome in which the arrhythmia alternates between fast and slow heart rates.

  7. Left ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_ventricular_hypertrophy

    Left ventricular hypertrophy with secondary repolarization abnormalities as seen on ECG Histopathology of (a) normal myocardium and (b) myocardial hypertrophy. Scale bar indicates 50 μm. Gross pathology of left ventricular hypertrophy. Left ventricle is at right in image, serially sectioned from apex to near base.

  8. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    A heart rate below normal is called "bradycardia" (<60 in adults) and above normal is called "tachycardia" (>100 in adults). A complication of this is when the atria and ventricles are not in synchrony and the "heart rate" must be specified as atrial or ventricular (e.g., the ventricular rate in ventricular fibrillation is 300–600 bpm ...

  9. Multifocal atrial tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifocal_atrial_tachycardia

    Multifocal atrial tachycardia is characterized by an electrocardiogram (ECG) strip with three or more discrete P wave morphologies in the same lead, not including that originating from the sinoatrial node, plus tachycardia, which is a heart rate exceeding 100 beats per minute (although some suggest using a threshold of 90 beats per minute ...
