This pattern of T wave inversions in the right precordial leads V1-4
plus the inferior leads (especially the rightward-facing lead III)

is referred to as the right ventricular strain pattern.
It is a marker of right ventricular hypertrophy or dilatation.

 

* Right ventricular Strain :

• Pulmonary hypertension
• Mitral stenosis
• Pulmonary embolism
• Chronic lung disease (cor pulmonale)
• Congenital heart disease (e.g. Tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary stenosis)
• Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
