2018 Echocardiogram Ischemia

Here is the EMS ECG: Obviously massive diffuse subendocardial ischemia, with profound STD and STE in aVR Of course this pattern is most often seen from etoliogies other than ACS. The ECG only tells you there is ischemia, not the etiology of it. What do you think the echocardiogram shows? NTG drip started. Pain better still.

My written interpretation on a tracing such as this one would read, "Marked LVH and 'strain' and/or ischemia — with need for clinical correlation." BOTTOM LINE: ECG changes of LV "strain" and/or ischemia that we see on today's initial ECG — were not present 9 years earlier. Cardiac cath showed normal coronary arteries.

His response: “subendocardial ischemia. Smith : It should be noted that, in subendocardial ischemia, in contrast to OMI, absence of wall motion abnormality is common. See this case: what do you think the echocardiogram shows in this case? Anything more on history? POCUS will be helpful.” J Electrocardiol 2013;46:240-8 2.

The ECG shows sinus tachycardia with RBBB and LAFB, without clear additional superimposed signs of ischemia. Hopefully a repeat echocardiogram will be performed outpatient. Chest trauma was suspected on initial exam. Here is his initial ECG around 1330: What do you think? 1900: RBBB and LAFB are almost fully resolved.

This strongly suggests reperfusing RCA ischemia. Troponins, echocardiogram An echocardiogram showed inferobasilar hypokinesis, further supporting a diagnosis of regional ischemia , likely of the area supplied by the RCA. There is also a Q-wave in III. There is also subtle STD in V3-V5. ng/ml (99th %-ile URL = 0.04

Formal echocardiogram showed normal EF, no wall motion abnormalities, no pericardial effusion. 72; Issue 9; 2018 ) — A ) Brugada-1 ECG pattern, showing coved ST-segment elevation ≥2 mm in ≥1 right precordial lead, followed by a negative T-wave. — No more troponins were done. He was found to be influenza positive.

Now you have ECG and troponin evidence of ischemia, AND ventricular dysrhythmia, which means this is NOT a stable ACS. These are reperfusion T-waves (the same thing as Wellens' waves) Echocardiogram Regional wall motion abnormality-distal septum and apex. It they are static, then they are not due to ischemia. 2012;5:134–137.
