In aortic insufficiency, the electrocardiographic findings are nonspecific. However, the following may be noted:
 
* [[Left ventricular hypertrophy]]
* Left axis deviation
* [[Left atrial enlargement]]
* Left ventricular volume overload pattern (prominent Q waves in leads I, aVL, and V3 to V6 and relatively small r waves in V1)
* Left ventricular conduction defects (typically late in the disease process)
* Repolarization abnormalities
* ST-segment depression in precordial leads
