    Electrocardiograms can help assess mitral stenosis severity and pulmonary hypertension. Specific QRS and T wave patterns correlate with hemodynamic pressures, aiding diagnosis and monitoring of mitral stenosis complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Clinical Electrophysiology

    Background:

    • Mitral stenosis (MS) significantly impacts cardiac hemodynamics.
    • Accurate assessment of MS severity and associated pulmonary hypertension is crucial for patient management.
    • Electrocardiography (ECG) offers a non-invasive method to evaluate cardiac alterations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the correlation between specific electrocardiographic parameters and hemodynamic data in patients with mitral stenosis.
    • To identify ECG criteria for estimating mitral valve area and pulmonary artery pressures.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of ECGs from 50 patients with mitral stenosis in sinus rhythm.
    • Analysis of QRS and T wave axes, Lewis index, Sokolow-Lyon index, R/R+S quotient in V1, and QRS intrinsicoid deflection time.

  • Correlation of ECG findings with hemodynamic measurements (pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary capillary pressure).

    • Main Results:

    • Frontal QRS axis showed a good correlation with hemodynamic data.
    • The R/R+S quotient in V1 best correlated with mean pulmonary artery and pulmonary capillary pressures.
    • Specific ECG criteria were identified to estimate mitral area (<0.8 cm²) and pulmonary artery pressures (>25 mm Hg and >35 mm Hg) with <5% false positives.

    Conclusions:

    • ECG parameters, particularly QRS and R/R+S in V1, are valuable for assessing mitral stenosis severity and pulmonary hypertension.
    • Specific ECG criteria can non-invasively estimate hemodynamic changes, aiding clinical decision-making.
    • ECG provides a reliable, accessible tool for monitoring the hemodynamic repercussions of mitral stenosis.
