What are the common manifestations of ECG in hypertension?

Patient's question:

Older people often have some common illnesses. My father has high blood pressure, and he has recently been experiencing some discomfort in his heart. I would like to ask what are the common manifestations of high blood pressure on an electrocardiogram?

Doctor's answer:

Chronic hypertension can lead to cardiomyopathy. In the early stages of hypertensive heart disease, the heart is in a state of relatively strong compensation, where ventricular hypertrophy may reappear. This is reflected on an electrocardiogram as a battery-like deflection. In the middle and later stages of hypertensive heart disease, it often splits into atherosclerotic heart disease. In this case, ischemic symptoms of the heart may reappear,stt。
