Using corrected orthogonal (ECG system Frank and 12 conventional leads, 525 children were examined: 300 healthy children, 125 with heart defects leading to right ventricular hypertrophy, and 100 with breeds leading to left ventricular hypertrophy. Criteria for diagnosing hypertrophy of the right and left ventricles were developed. heart in children 3-7 and 8-15 years old Comparative analysis of the results indicates a higher sensitivity of the Frank system compared with 12 conventional leads in identifying left ventricular hypertrophy in children.
