Strain pattern
In today's article, we will explore the fascinating world of Strain pattern. From its historical origin to its relevance today, through its multiple uses and applications, this article aims to provide a complete and detailed overview of Strain pattern. Over the next few lines, we will analyze its impact in different areas, as well as the trends and challenges it currently faces. With a multidisciplinary approach and a critical perspective, we will immerse ourselves in the complexity and diversity of Strain pattern, in order to offer our readers an informed and enriching perspective on this exciting topic.
In electrocardiography, a strain pattern is a well-recognized marker for the presence of anatomic left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in the form of ST depression and T wave inversion on a resting ECG.[1] It is an abnormality of repolarization and it has been associated with an adverse prognosis in a variety heart disease patients. It has been important in refining the role of ECG LVH criteria in cardiac risk stratification. It is thought that a strain pattern could also reflect underlying coronary heart disease.[citation needed] Floyd strain includes T-wave inversion "Floyd.".
