An atrial septal defect should show a right bundle branch block, or RBBB ― sometimes incomplete ― on ECG. This is partially due to the right ventricular volume and pressure overload that occurs. When ...

If the finding on an ECG is “septal infarct, age undetermined,” it means that the patient possibly had a heart attack at an undetermined time in the past. Septal infarct is a patch of dead, dying, or ...

Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther. 2007;5(6):1135-1146. Diagnosing a secundum ASD is more often than not incidental because the defect normally causes symptoms late in adult life. Echocardiography and MRI ...

Congenital heart defects are relatively common, among which atrial septal defects (ASDs) are the most prevalent in adults. Without timely treatment, ASDs may lead to permanent cardiovascular damage ...

Normal sinus rhythm Inferior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction Posterior myocardial infarction Left atrial enlargement A posterior wall MI frequently occurs along with an inferior wall MI due ...

The AI model was more efficient at detecting signatures of atrial septal defect (ASD) in electrocardiograms (ECG) than traditional methods. Investigators from Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding ...

An atrial septal defect is a congenital heart issue. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it develops in about 1 in 1,859 babies in the United States. An atrial septal ...

Atrial septal aneurysm means that there is a bulge in the interatrial septum. It may not present with symptoms. However, it can occur alongside other heart problems that cause symptoms such as ...

Patent foramen ovale and atrial septal aneurysm have been identified as potential risk factors for stroke, but information about their effect on the risk of recurrent stroke is limited. We studied the ...

THE diagnosis of acute infarction of the atrium of the heart is made very rarely in comparison with the probable frequency of its actual occurrence. This condition is seldom recognized during life.

A septal infarct is an area of dead tissue in the septum of the heart, which is a wall of tissue dividing the two sides of the heart. It happens when there is a blockage or reduction in its blood ...
