Öğe Relationship between P Wave Dispersion and Diastolic Dysfunction(2003) Gündüz, Hüseyin; Binak, Emre; Akdemir, Ramazan; Tamer, Ali; Ayarcan, Yasemin; Özkekelif, Mehmet; Uyan, CihangirDiastolic dysfunction of hypertrophic or ischemic left ventricle causes an increase in ventricular enddiastolic pressure and left atrial size. In this situation, continuity of sinus rhythm and atrial contractions are of great value for the maintenance of cardiac output. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between P wave dispersion, which is easily measured on the surface ECG and used in assessing the risk of atrial fibrillation, and left ventricular diastolic function. In our study, a total of 133 patients were included (73 patients with diastolic dysfunction assessed by transthorasic echocardiography and 60 patients without). P wave dispersions were calculated by measuring the P minimum and P maximum values on the surface ECG. The relation between P wave dispersion and presence of diastolic dysfunction, its etiology, severity and echocardiographic measurements were investigated. P dispersion was 53±9 ms in patients with diastolic dysfunction and 43±9 ms in the control group (p< 0.01). When the patients were grouped according to the stage of diastolic dysfunction, P dispersion was 48±7 ms in stage 1, 54±8 ms in stage 2 and 58±9 ms in stage 3. It was noted that as the severity of diastolic dysfunction increased, P dispersion also increased without reaching statistical significance (p> 0.05). When the etiology of diastolic dysfunction was considered, P dispersion was 53±8 ms in patients with ischemic heart disease, and 52±9 ms in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and a significant difference was not present (p> 0.05). Hence, in patients with diastolic dysfunction, P dispersion increases but this increase is not related to the severity of diastolic dysfunction or its etiology. When clinical and echocardiographic parameters are taken into account, there was a weak but significant correlation only between P dispersion and left ventricular ejection fraction.Öğe The relationship between P wave dispersion and diastolic dysfunction(Texas Heart Inst, 2005) Gündüz , Hüseyin; Binak, Emre; Arınç, Hüseyin; Akdemir, Ramazan; Özhan, Hakan; Tamer, Ali; Uyan, CihangirWe investigated the relationship between P wave dispersion, which is easily measured on the surface electrocardiogram and may be used in evaluating the risk of atrial fibrillation, and left ventricular diastolic function. There were 133 patients: 73 with diastolic dysfunction and 60 without. P wave dispersions were calculated by measuring minimum and maximum P wave duration values on the surface electrocardiogram. The relationships between P wave dispersion and the presence, cause, severity, and echocardiographic measurements of diastolic dysfunction were investigated. P wave dispersion was 53 +/- 9 ms in patients with diastolic dysfunction and 43 9 ms in the control group (P < 0.01). When patients were grouped according to stage of diastolic dysfunction. P wave dispersion was 48 +/- 7 ms in stage 1, 54 +/- 8 ms in stage 2 and 58 +/- 9 ms in stage 3. As the severity of diastolic dysfunction increased, P wave dispersion increased but the difference did not reach statistical significance (P < 0.05). When the cause of diastolic dysfunction was considered, P wave dispersion was 53 +/- 8 ms in patients with ischemic heart disease and 52 +/- 9 ms in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (P > 0.05). We conclude that P wave dispersion increases in diastolic dysfunction, but that this increase is not related to the severity or cause of diastolic dysfunction. When clinical and echocardiographic variables are taken into account, there is a weak but significant correlation only between P wave dispersion and left ventricular ejection fraction.
