The ECG did not meet STEMI criteria, and the final cardiology interpretation was “ST and T wave abnormality, consider anterior ischemia”. Hence the first ECG was labeled 'anterior ischemia' based on ST depression, rather than identifying this as reciprocal from posterior OMI. Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol 2010 7. Meyers et al.

Again, it is common to have an ECG that shows apparent subendocardial ischemia after resuscitation from cardiac arrest, after defibrillation, and after cardioversion. and repeat the ECG, to see if the apparent ischemia persists. A third ECG was done about 25 minutes after the first: This shows resolution of all apparent ischemia.

Data from 29 stroke centers for 10,229 AIS patients treated with MT for LVO between January 2010 and December 2022 was investigated. The primary outcome measure was successful recanalization defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) score of 2b or higher.

Methods:236 AIS patients with low ASPECTS caused by LVO who undertook MT between January 2010 and December 2022 were retrospectively investigated. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression results were used to screen model predictors and construct nomograms of 90-day modified Rankin Scale scores (mRS) 0-3. with a score of 2, 17.7%

Traditional methods of non-invasive ischemia testing (stress EKG , stress echo, SPECT , PET , direct-to-cath) can result in false negatives 20-30 percent of the time, which can lead to undetected disease, and false positives over 50 percent of the time, which can lead to unnecessary invasive procedures.

The other main consideration — is to take another look at the 12-lead ECG, and assess this for recent ischemia or infarction.

If the patient had been "lucky," his symptoms from the prior day might have been due to ischemia prolonged and intense enough to result in small troponin increase.
