jobbkardiális

jobbkardiális is a term used in electrocardiography (ECG) to describe a finding related to the electrical activity of the heart. It refers to a condition where the electrical impulses are conducted in a manner that suggests the heart's electrical axis is deviated towards the right. The electrical axis represents the average direction of depolarization of the ventricles during a heartbeat.

Normally, the electrical axis of the heart falls within a specific range. A rightward deviation, as indicated by jobbkardiális, can be caused by several factors. These may include conditions that increase the workload on the right ventricle, such as pulmonary hypertension or chronic lung diseases. Structural abnormalities of the heart, like right ventricular hypertrophy (thickening of the right ventricular wall), can also lead to this finding.

Furthermore, certain conduction abnormalities, such as a right bundle branch block, can also manifest as a rightward shift in the electrical axis. In some cases, a jobbkardiális finding might be considered a normal variant in individuals without any underlying heart disease. However, it is usually evaluated in conjunction with the patient's clinical history and other ECG findings to determine its significance and potential underlying cause. Interpretation of jobbkardiális requires expertise in reading ECGs and understanding cardiac physiology.
