Overview
Electrocardiogram
- The ECG may be normal in the newborn , but in older patients signs of right ventricular hypertrophy may be seen.
- After a mustard operation rhythm disturbances such as bradyarrhythmias may be seen.
- Varying degrees of AV block may be seen in all patients.
- The right axis deviation is moderate or absent, in patients with a large VSD, low pulmonary vascular resistance, and LV volume overload. On the other hand, the right axis deviation is greater if there is a reduced pulmonary arterial blood flow and reduced LV volume as a result of pulmonary vascular disease or pulmonic stenosis.
- Q waves are present in right precordial leads which resembles inferior wall myocardial infarction.
- Q waves are absent in left Procordial leads.
