Technically, the diagnosis of an anterior myocardial infarction on an ECG has never been validated in the setting of a paced rhythm, however that was the case in this ECG. There was acute ...

Her risk factors included hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia. Her admission ECG showed a ventricular paced rhythm with ST changes consistent with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) ...

Ventricular paced rhythm was detected on 12-lead ECG ... the ECG findings corresponded to STEMI equivalent of the anterior wall. As expected, an occlusion of the middle segment of the left ...

Advanced: Differential diagnosis for post STEMI patients ... accelerated idioventricular rhythm (AIVR), most likely resulting from the reperfusion of an injured heart muscle.

The heart rate and BP may be elevated due to increased sympathetic tone, or the BP can be low due to reduced cardiac output (cardiogenic shock), depending on the extent of the STEMI. An S4 heart ...

Following cardiac catheterization, patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have a higher risk of short-term mortality than patients with non-STEMI (NSTEMI), who have a ...

Introduction Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PPCI) for acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is increasingly concerned about in situ thrombosis. Endothelial dysfunction is the ...

Background Despite significant advancements in cardiovascular care, the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) continues to be an area of active interest and discussion. Findings ...

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) diagnosis is based on a clinical presentation and ST-segment ... The patient’s ejection fraction is low, the troponin is very high (a reasonable ...

For patients with either NSTEMI or STEMI, American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines recommend that intravenous unfractionated heparin (UFH) be dosed by weight ...
