His ECG was repeated at this point: This shows a well developed anterior STEMI. To not see these findings is very common, and this patient would be given the diagnosis of NonSTEMI, with subsequent development of STEMI. It is not a missed STEMI, but it is a missed coronary occlusion. The peak troponin I was over 100.

Code STEMI was activated by the ED physician based on the diagnostic ECG for LAD OMI in ventricular paced rhythm. This was several months after the 2022 ACC Guidelines adding modified Sgarbossa criteria as a STEMI equivalent in ventricular paced rhythm). LAFB, atrial flutter, anterolateral STEMI(+) OMI.

Using person-linked hospitalisation data, we compared International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-coded data with biomarker-classified admission rates for ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI), non-STEMI (NSTEMI) and unstable angina (UA) in Western Australia (WA). Results There were 37 272 ACS admissions in 30 683 patients (64.2%

50% of LAD STEMI have Q-waves by one hour. Smith : In limb leads, the ST vector is towards lead II (STE lead II STE lead III, which is more likely with pericarditis than with STEMI). This correlates with potentially salvageable myocardium. See Raitt et al.: These findings together are more commonly seen with pericarditis. Hammill, S.
