Abstract: This study investigates the prevalence of ECG changes in patients with hypothyroidism at a tertiary care hospital in Ahmedabad. By examining 30 patients with diagnosed hypothyroidism, the study found that 70% exhibited STT wave changes, 50% had low voltage complexes, and 10% showed sinus bradycardia. The study concludes that ECG abnormalities are more common in patients with higher TSH levels, with a 100% abnormality rate in patients with TSH levels above 40 pIUml.
