Incremental changes in QRS duration as predictor for cardiovascular disease: a 21-year follow-up of a randomly selected general population
Abstract The QRS complex has been shown to be a prognostic marker in coronary artery disease. However, the changes in QRS duration over time, and its predictive value for cardiovascular disease in the general population is poorly studied. So we aimed to explore if increased QRS duration from the age...

Abstract The QRS complex has been shown to be a prognostic marker in coronary artery disease.
