Because nearly all patients with acute aortic dissection have systemic hypertension, we examined electrocardiograms (ECGs) in 21 patients with spontaneous acute type A aortic dissection. An earlier study had shown that total 12-lead QRS voltage was the best criterion for determining left ventricular hypertrophy from the ECG. We measured total 12-lead QRS voltage in 21 patients with spontaneous (no previous cardiac or aortic operation) acute type A aortic dissection and operative repair. Using >175 mm as evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, only 8 patients (38%) had hearts of increased mass. Total 12-lead QRS voltage corresponded slightly with age but not with body mass index. In conclusion, total 12-lead QRS voltage is not useful for diagnostic purposes in patients with acute type A aortic dissection undergoing operative repair.
由于几乎所有急性主动脉夹层患者都有系统性高血压,我们对21例自发性急性A型主动脉夹层患者的心电图(ECG)进行了检查。一项较早的研究表明,12导联QRS波群总电压是通过心电图确定左心室肥厚的最佳标准。我们测量了21例自发性(既往无心脏或主动脉手术史)急性A型主动脉夹层并接受手术修复患者的12导联QRS波群总电压。以>175mm作为左心室肥厚的证据,只有8例患者(38%)心脏质量增加。12导联QRS波群总电压与年龄略有相关,但与体重指数无关。总之,12导联QRS波群总电压对接受手术修复的急性A型主动脉夹层患者的诊断并无帮助。
