Cardiology noted there was no STEMI criteria and the first troponin was in the normal range (25ng/L, with normal <26), so alternate diagnoses were considered and the patient was sent for CT to rule out aortic dissection. Prospective validation of current quantitative electrocardiographic criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

Hgb 11g/dL (110g/L) and leukocytosis, and a mildly elevated troponin (36 ng/L, with normal 1mm STE in aVR due to ACS will require coronary artery bypass surgery for revascularization, the infarct artery is often not the LM, but rather the LAD or severe 3-vessel disease. 2 cases of Aortic Stenosis: Diffuse Subendocardial Ischemia on the ECG.
