The most characteristic finding is increased amplitude of the QRS complex. R waves in leads facing the left ventricle (i.e., leads I, aVL, V 5 , and V 6 ) are taller than normal, whereas S waves in leads overlying the right ventricle (i.e., V 1 and V 2 ) are deeper than normal. In many patients, the ST segment is depressed and followed by an inverted T wave. In most cases, the ST segment slopes downward from a depressed J point and the T wave is asymmetrically inverted (formerly called a “strain” pattern). A widening of the QRS complex may be there i.e. more than 110 ms and also the QRS complex may be notched. Common diagnostic criteria include: 1) Sokolow - Lyon index : SV 1 + (RV 5 or RV 6 ) > 3.5 mV : RaVL > 1.1 mV 2) Cornell voltage criteria : SV 3 + SaVL ≥ 2.8 mV (for men) : SV 3 + SaVL ≥ 2.0 mV (for women)
