Abstract：Objective To appraise the diagnosis value of Cornell index and Sokolow index by comparing their performance in pediatric electrocardiogram for left ventricular hypertrophy. Methods One thou- sand and eighty two cases of children inpatient from 2008 to 2010 in our hospital were divided into three groups: one months to three years old（232 cases in male and 184 cases in female），three years old to thirteen （198 cases in male and 143 cases in female），thirteen to seventeen（186 cases in male and 139 cases in female）. Each group was divided into normal group and LVH group according to left ventricular diameter （LVD） detected by echocardiogram. Sensitivity，specificity and accurancy of Cornell index and Sokolow index were calculated. Results In the group of one months to three years， the sensitivity， specificity and accurancy of Cornell index were higher than Sokolow index for both sexes. There was no significant difference of the two indexes in the other two groups（>0.95），but the sensitivity and accurancy of Cornell index were higher than Sokolow index for both sexes in the later groups. Conclusion The effect of Cornell index is more effective than Sokolow index in pediatric electrocardiogram diagnosis for left ventricular hypertrophy.
