The Significance of Right‐Sided Precordial <scp>ECG</scp> Leads (<scp>V3R</scp> and <scp>V4R</scp>) in Assessing Right Ventricular Dysfunction: A Single Center Cross‐Sectional Study
The study found that qR, rS, and QS patterns were more prevalent in V3R and V4R leads among patients with severe and nonsevere right ventricular systolic dysfunction. The most common ECG feature observed was deep T-wave inversion in these leads. The study recommends using right-sided precordial leads in all patients with RV systolic dysfunction for early detection and risk stratification.
