Abstract

In a group of patients with chronic heart failure, a longer P-wave duration on signal-averaged electrocardiogram was found in those patients with higher pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, whereas the left atrium end-systolic diameter was not significantly different. Furthermore, an acute reduction in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure induced by sodium nitroprusside infusion was associated with a reduction in P-wave duration.
