In some cases there can be a notched (or bifid) p-wave known as “p mitrale”, indicative of left atrial hypertrophy which may be caused by mitral stenosis. There may be tall peaked p-waves. This is called “p-pulmonale” and is indicative of right atrial hypertrophy often secondary to...
It has to be understood, when classifying the location of an MI by the leads where abnormal Q waves occur, that the "affected" zone produced by the occlusion or spasm of a given vessel may and in fact does, extend beyond the the area of necrosis to one with injury alone. In other wo...
