When totaled, how many millimeters are necessary in V1 or V2 from the isoelectric line to the tip of the deepest QS complex, plus the distance from the isoelectric line to the tip of the tallest R wave in V5 or V6, to suspect left ventricular hypertrophy?
A)20 mm
B)25 mm
C)30 mm
D)35 mm

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sokolow-Lyon criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy suggest that the sum of the S wave in V1 or V2 and the R wave in V5 or V6 should be greater than or equal to 35 mm.
