McCullough PA Chan CT Weinhandl ED Burkart JM Bakris GL Intensive Hemodialysis Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Cardiovascular Disease American Journal of Kidney Diseases Volume 68 Issue 5 S5 S14. Abstract ID: IRIA - 1063. INTRODUCTION. Left ventricular  aneurysm is an extremely uncommon finding in the paediatric population. Causes may be congenital or acquired,. [1] . and include trauma, . Left ventricular hypertrophy: Ventricular premature complex ismore common in hypertensive subjects when there is concomitantLVH (14, 15). The most dangerous forms of ventricular arrhythmia(tachycardia Cardiac Muscle Contraction. Depolarization of the heart is rhythmic and spontaneous. About 1% of cardiac cells have automaticity— (are self-excitable). Gap junctions ensure the heart contracts as a unit. 8-10:00am. . James Fulcher, M.D.. Natural disease and Diving. Outline.

Electrocardiogram interpretation is an invaluable clinical skill that is taught in many different ways at medical schools across the country. It is often informal and clinicians are expected to "pick it up" as they see patients on the wards and in clinics. There are many "courses" which can be purchased off the shelves at the bookstore -some of them too simplistic and others hopelessly detailed. In an effort to better meet the needs of .
