TI  - ECG poor R-wave progression: review and synthesis.
PG  - 1145-8
AB  - Poor R-wave progression is a common ECG finding that is often inconclusively 
      interpreted as suggestive, but not diagnostic, of anterior myocardial infarction 
      (AMI). Recent studies have shown that poor R-wave progression has the following 
      four distinct major causes: AMI, left ventricular hypertrophy, right ventricular 
      hypertrophy, and a variant of normal with diminished anterior forces. Standard 
      ECG criteria that identify and distinguish these causes have been developed. An 
      interpretive approach to the ECG with poor R-wave progression is presented that 
      has clinical relevance in the daily treatment of patients.
