METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF DEVELOPING LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS SUFFERING ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A61B5/452 A61B8/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, cardiology. Electrocardiographic examination is carried out. Late ventricular potentials are recorded by high resolution electrocardiography. The QT interval dispersions are calculated. If an arterial hypertension experience exceeds 1.3 years, while observing the late ventricular potentials combined with the QTapex interval dispersion gain ≥40 ms and the corrected QTapex interval dispersion gain ≥42 ms^1/2, disturbed left ventricular geometry is detected and suggested to hypertrophy in children and adolescents suffering arterial hypertension.

EFFECT: method provides higher prediction accuracy with using electrocardiography for the prediction procedure.
