The purpose of the study is to find out presence of LVH by 2D Echo in all cases of hypertension in relation to their duration and severity. In this study it was observed that 59% subjects were males and 41% were females and the mean age of males and females was 64 yrs. Majority of them 36.5% were in the age group of 61-70 yrs, out of them majority of females 48.6% were from age group 71-80 yrs and majority of males 76.5% were from age group of >80 yrs. Study showed that occurrence of LVH by Interventricular septal thickness criteria and Left ventricular posterior wall thickness criteria of 2D Echo in relation to duration of hypertension was statistically not significant. Occurrence of LVH by interventricular septal thickness criteria and Left ventricular posterior wall thickness criteria of 2D Echo in relation to severity of hypertension was statistically not significant.
