Abstract

Hypertension is a condition that occurs in someone who has systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg on repeated examination. If hypertension is left and untreated, it will be lead to damage the organs such as left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Changes that occur in the heart of hypertensive patients, which include structural changes in the form of hypertrophy and dilatation in the left ventricle, can be assessed not only by the thorax photo but LVH can also be objectively demonstrated by the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) through echocardiography examination. This research is an analytical study by taking patient’s medical record data, then it will be presented in tabular format. The results of collecting data is found that there are 38 patients who appropriate with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The highest number, 23 person, is hypertensive patients that show LVH by echocardiography examination and also cardiomegaly by thorax photo (85.19%), then the lowest number, 1 person, is hypertensive patient that does not have LVH by echocardiography examination and has a normal condition by thorax photo (9,09%). There are also 10 person of hypertensive patients that show cardiomegaly by thorax photo but do not have LVH by echocardiography examination (90,91%) and 4 person others of hypertensive patients that show have LVH by echocardiography examination but do not have cardiomegaly by thorax photo (14,81%). The conclusion is that there is no correlation between the left ventricular mass index on echocardiography examination and thorax photo in hypertensive patients.
