Why the study?
Do intraventricular conduction delays on standard ECG predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a general population?
Do intraventricular conduction delays on standard ECG predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a general population?
In a general population cohort, non-specific IVCD, LBBB, and incomplete RBBB on standard ECG are significant predictors of increased cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, whereas RBBB is not.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
ECG conduction delays may aid CV risk stratification on routine ECG; leaves open whether targeted interventions improve outcomes.
