Post cath ECG: Now there are hyperacute T-waves again, and recurrent ST depression in V2 This ECG would normally diagnostic of OMI until proven otherwise No further troponins were measured, but it looks like there is recurrent OMI Next day: A CT Coronary Angiogram was done (CTCA) CARDIAC MORPHOLOGY AND FUNCTION: 1. IMPRESSION: 1.

Cardiology admitted him for observation with plans for next-day coronary angiogram. Unfortunately, due to the patient’s abrupt exodus from the PCI center – without benefit of coronary angiogram, or echo, for example – the disposition will forever remain unknown.

Here is the coronary angiogram: A distal thrombotic right coronary artery (RCA) occlusion ! 2021 Sep;49(6):488-500. Cath lab was not activated because we diagnosed a "high risk" NSTEMI; rather, it was because we suspected, actively searched for, and could not refute an OMI that needs to be immediately reperfused.

It’s judicious, then, to arrange for coronary angiogram. Coronary occlusion, however, might be present concurrently with subendocardial ischemia on the time-zero ECG, or evolve into such. elevated BP), but rather directly correlated with coronary obstruction and stymied TIMI flow.

CT coronary angiogram showed a hypoplastic RCA and dominant LCx. Figure-5: Long lead II recording on oral flecainide ( 10 minutes of continuous recording each line being 1-minute long ). No PVCs are seen. A workup was undertaken in search of a cause of the patient's ventricular arrhythmia. There were no plaques or stenoses.
