Jan 29, 2022 · The presence of broad, notched (bifid) P waves in lead II is a sign of left atrial enlargement, classically due to mitral stenosis.

Oct 8, 2024 · Left atrial enlargement (LAE) is due to pressure or volume overload of the left atrium. LAE is often a precursor to atrial fibrillation. Also known as: Left Atrial Enlargement …

Oct 8, 2024 · Biatrial enlargement is diagnosed when criteria for both right and left atrial enlargement are present on the same ECG. The spectrum of P-wave changes in leads II and …

Biatrial abnormality implies that the ECG indicates both left and right atrial enlargement; i.e a large P-wave in lead II and a large biphasic P-wave in lead V1. This article explains clinical …

Nov 1, 2024 · ⚠️ Massive limb lead P-waves (>2.5 mm high & >3 mm wide) indicate biatrial abnormality. Effect of left or right atrial abnormality on P-wave morphology in inferior leads. …

Bifid P waves (known as P mitrale) indicate left-atrial abnormality - e.g. dilatation [6] or hypertrophy. [1] If at least three different shaped P waves can be seen in a given ECG lead …

Feb 15, 2021 · Bifid P waves are also referred to as P mitrale. Their presence indicates dyssynchrony between right and left atrial depolarisation; this may be normal, or suggestive of …
