BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Electrocardiographic (ECG) left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an established risk factor for cardiovascular events. However, limited data is available on the prognostic values of different ECG LVH criteria specifically to sudden cardiac death (SCD). Our goal was to assess relationships of different ECG LVH criteria to SCD.
METHODS METHODS
Three traditional and clinically useful (Sokolow-Lyon, Cornell, R
RESULTS RESULTS
After a mean follow-up of 12.5 ± 2.2 years, 134 SCDs had occurred. When used as continuous variables, all LVH criteria except for R
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Sokolow-Lyon, Cornell, and Peguero-Lo Presti ECG, but not R
