PLEASE CLEAR MY DOUBT

2023-06-28 12:06:21
Dear Sir, Recently i got my ECG done and the below mentioned ECG note says "BORDERLINE LVH SUSPECTED" I got scared and then got the ECHO done as well. Echo and ECG attached herewith. NOW MY CONCERN IS WHY THE ECG SUSPECTED LVH WHEN ECHO WAS OKAY. I have read somewhere that in slim person like me the ECG falsely interprets LVH because of the thin chest wall it shows large QRS complexes. Is this the reason why the ECG falsely interpreted BORDERLINE LVH in my case. Please help.

LVH usually happens due to hypertension. And yes ECG can falsely interpret LVH
