Hello,

Please explain:

1. What is meant by reversed cardiac axis?
2. Why is it reversed in hypertension? (I know right deviation is due to right hypertrophy and left deviation due to left hypertrophy).
3. What causes the cardiac axis to change during diastole and systole?

Thanks

If you are a medical student, why are you asking in the Pre-Med forum for homework help?

Regardless, homework help is not allowed on sdn. Closing.
