WHAT’S NEW?
Ours is the first research study that demonstrated an association between frontal QRS-T angle and severe-very severe COPD. The primary finding of our study was that the patients with severe-very severe COPD had significantly higher frontal QRS-T angle than patients with mild-moderate COPD.It can be concluded that the patients who have an increased frontal QRS-T angle on initial ECG will have worse pulmonary function test results than the patients who do not have.
