Validity of electrocardiographic estimates of left ventricular hypertrophy and mass in African Americans (The Charleston Heart Study)

The American Journal of Cardiology

Abstract

The Cornell voltage criteria and the Novacode computer model for estimating left ventricular mass were compared to echocardiographic left ventricular mass in African Americans from the Charleston Heart Study. The diagnostic accuracy of these electrocardiographic models compared with the echocardiogram is similar to the previous study in whites.
