Presentation See also the separate Heart Auscultation and Heart Murmurs in Children articles. Detection requires careful evaluation, as it is almost always associated with left-sided valve lesions that dominate the presentation. [patient.info]

Medical therapy, including oral anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation, was initiated, with good response, and the patient’s condition remained stable 1 year after presentation. [nejm.org]

In line with these results, in the present study, patients with HCM who presented with AF at initial diagnosis showed the most pronounced LA dilatation. [medsci.org]

Furthermore, patients presenting with RAE often demonstrate ECG changes associated with right ventricular hypertrophy as well. [meds.queensu.ca]

• P Pulmonale

  Such a P-wave is called P pulmonale because pulmonary disease is the most common cause (Figure 1). The P-wave amplitude is >2.5 mm in P pulmonale. [ecgwaves.com]

  In general, left atrial enlargement is used as a synonym for p mitrale, right atrial enlargement for p pulmonale, and biatrial enlargement for p biatriale. [link.springer.com]

  Traditional ECG criteria for right atrial enlargement, such as P pulmonale, have been increasingly criticized as insensitive and nonspecific. [onlinejacc.org]

• P Mitrale

  This is called P mitrale, because mitral valve disease is a common cause (Figure 1). The duration of the P-wave will exceed 120 milliseconds in lead II. [ecgwaves.com]

  The delayed depolarization can result in a humped or notched P wave commonly termed P mitral (this term technically refers only to a humped or notched P wave that is the result of mitral valve stenosis). [humankinetics.com]

• Prominent A-Wave

  The S waves are prominent in leads V5 and V6. The amplitude of R wave is more than 5 mm in lead VI. [yourarticlelibrary.com]

  For example, positioning leads V1 and V2 too high ( by 1 or 2 interspaces ) on the chest — may result in prominent P wave negativity, that in lead V1 might falsely suggest LAA ( Please see My Comment at the bottom of the page on Dr. [ecg-interpretation.blogspot.com]

• Pleural Effusion

  Fluid also leaks into the pleural spaces, causing pleural effusions. [radiologymasterclass.co.uk]

  CXR: shows marked cardiomegaly with right heart enlargement, and pleural effusions. Ascites with diaphragmatic elevation may be present. Pulmonary arterial and venous hypertension are common. [patient.info]

In the case of pulmonary diseases affecting the heart, the treatment depends on the individual disease. The general aim of treatment is to reduce the load on the heart. [wisegeekhealth.com]

If an individual suffers from atrial enlargement, then there may often be many questions regarding the causes, treatment as well as possible cures. [justanswer.com]

Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may require an operation to fix the abnormality. [cardiachealth.org]

Management Treatment of the underlying condition - eg, antibiotics for infective endocarditis. Treatment of associated arrhythmias. Management of heart failure. [patient.info]

David McManus, director of the Atrial Fibrillation Treatment Program at UMass Memorial Health Care in Massachusetts, wrote in their report. Indeed, previous studies have suggested that alcohol may be associated with atrial fibrillation. [livescience.com]

Prognosis Prognosis is generally good but dependent on the prognosis of the underlying disease, associated other heart abnormalities and associated arrhythmias. Tricuspid regurgitation [ 1 ] The incidence of TR is less than 1%. [patient.info]
