A member asked:

Ecg results flag 'possible left atrial enlargement'. does this need re-checked?, or if reliable what does it mean for me?

Atrium: EKG diagnosis of left atrial enlargement is often ambiguous. An echocardiogram is the accurate method of measuring the size of the heart chambers. Causes of left atrial enlargement include certain types of valvular heart disease or elevated blood pressure. If you have a heart murmur or hypertension, consult a cardiologist for evaluation.
