Overview

LV parameters worsen across hypertension severity; extends ECG-LVH prognostic data to wall stress-mass metrics in RCTs.

Structured PICO

P
Population
1,612 adults, comprising 964 hypertensive patients with ECG LV hypertrophy (Cornell voltage-duration product > 2440 mm x ms and/or SV1 + RV(5-6) > 38 mm) from the LIFE trial, 282 employed hypertensive adults, and 366 apparently normal adults.
C
Comparator
Normotensive adults and mild hypertensive adults
O
Outcome
ECG LV parameters contributing to myocardial oxygen demand (wall stresses, LV mass, heart rate and wall stress-mass-heart rate products)surrogate
