Rightward deviation of the cardiac axis is commonly seen in conditions such as right ventricular hypertrophy and left posterior branch block, and varies from person to person.
1. Common causes of right ventricular hypertrophy include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary embolism, congenital heart disease or rheumatic heart disease. If rightward deviation of the heart axis is considered to be caused by right ventricular hypertrophy, cardiac ultrasound and other auxiliary examinations should be perfected to clarify the diagnosis before further searching for the cause.
2. Diseases that often lead to bundle branch block include rheumatic heart disease and congenital hypertensive heart disease. These diseases can lead to increased load on the right side of the heart, resulting in bundle branch block, which is characterized by a rightward deviation of the heart’s axis.
When the heart axis is deviated to the right, it is necessary to actively search for the cause of the disease and actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment. After treatment of the cause of the disease, the symptoms may be reduced and the rightward deviation of the electrical axis will disappear, so do not blindly use medication to avoid delaying the disease.
