Clinical Utility of the Electrocardiographic P-Wave Axis in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Background: The vertical P-wave axis on electrocardiography (ECG) is a useful criterion for screening patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

description Background: The vertical P-wave axis on electrocardiography (ECG) is a useful criterion for screening patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with COPD with a vertical P-wave axis as they have not yet been elucidated. Methods: Keio University and its affiliated hospitals conducted an observational COPD cohort study over 3 years. We analyzed 201 patients using ECG and chest computed tomography. Results: The severity of airflow limitation was higher in patients with a P-wave axis >75° than in those with a P-wave axis ≤75°. Patients with a P-wave axis >75° exhibited significantly higher total COPD assessment test scores and increased St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire total, activity, and impact scores than those with a P-wave axis ≤75°. The incidence of exacerbations over 1 and 3 years was significantly higher in patients with a P-wave axis >75° than in those with a P-wave axis ≤75°. The optimal cutoff for the P-wave axis for a percentage of the predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s 75° than in those with a P-wave axis ≤75°. However, the ratio of the airway wall area did not differ between the 2 groups. Conclusions: Patients with COPD with a vertical P-wave axis exhibited severe airflow limitation and emphysema, a worse health status, and more frequent exacerbation than patients without a vertical P-wave. Detection of the vertical P-wave axis by ECG is beneficial for the management of patients with COPD.
