| In aortic insufficiency, the electrocardiographic findings are nonspecific. However, the following may be noted:
| |
| | |
| * [[Left ventricular hypertrophy]]
| |
| * Left axis deviation
| |
| * [[Left atrial enlargement]]
| |
| * Left ventricular volume overload pattern (prominent Q waves in leads I, aVL, and V3 to V6 and relatively small r waves in V1)
| |
| * Left ventricular conduction defects (typically late in the disease process)
| |
| * Repolarization abnormalities
| |
| * ST-segment depression in precordial leads
