Abstract

Background: The absence of electrocardiographic septal q wave is a recognized marker of left ventricular disease. We aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of absent septal q waves in elderly (age >65 years) patients with chronic heart failure. Methods: A total of 110 patients (mean age 73 ± 4 years) with New York Heart Association functional class II to IV and left ventricular ejection fraction of
