Electrocardiographic Findings

  • LA enlargement (P mitrale): Left atrial enlargement produces a broad, bifid P wave in lead II (P mitrale) and enlarges the terminal negative portion of the P wave in VI.

In lead II following may be seen:

  1. Bifid P wave with > 40 ms between the two peaks
  2. Total P wave duration > 110 ms

In lead V1 follwing may be seen:

  1. Biphasic P wave with terminal negative portion > 40 ms duration
  2. Biphasic P wave with terminal negative portion > 1mm deep

Left atrial enlargement as seen in lead V1


  • Right ventricular hypertrophy: A mean QRS axis in the frontal plane is greater than 80 and an R-to-S ratio of greater than 1 in lead V1.
  • Right axis deviation: mean QRS axis in the frontal plane moves toward the right as pulmonary hypertension worsens
  • Atrial fibrillation is commonly seen with mitral stenosis: Irregularly irregular rhythm with absence P waves
