Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology
NOVEMBER 9, 2023
The role of intracranial stenting in ICAS remains uncertain. In the SAMMPRIS trial, patients who had experienced recent TIA/CVA secondary to 70‐99% ICAS demonstrated an increased risk of recurrent stroke when treated with angioplasty and stenting compared to medical therapy alone [1].

Former resident: "Just saw cath report, LAD stent was 100% acutely occluded." They of course opened and stented it. They said it looked similar to his old one (in my opinion, similar, but not similar enough to be able to say no OMI)." Smith : "What was the outcome?" You taught us well!"

I will leave more detailed rhythm discussion to the illustrious Dr. Ken Grauer below, but this use of calipers shows that the rhythm interpretation is: Sinus bradycardia with a competing (most likely junctional) rhythm. That is, until the 7th R wave which comes a little bit sooner than expected. Given the R-R interval = 1160 msecs.

A prehospital “STEMI” activation was called on a 75 year old male ( Patient 1 ) with a history of hyperlipidemia and LAD and Cx OMI with stent placement. He had multiple episodes of bradycardia and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. It was stented. He wrote most of it and I (Smith) edited.

Here is his ED ECG: There is bradycardia with a junctional escape. Case continued A bedside ultrasound showed diminished LV EF and of course bradycardia. Angiogram: Culprit Lesion (s): Thrombotic occlusion of the proximal RCA -- stented. The April 17, 2022 post ( Leads V1,V2 misplacement ). What is the atrial activity?

This middle aged male with h/o GERD but also h/o stents presented to the ED with chest pain. The computer called "Sinus Bradycardia" only (implying that everything else is normal. The overreading Cardiologist called it only "Sinus Bradycardia" with no other findings. The rhythm in Figure-1 is sinus bradycardia and arrhythmia.

His first electrocardiogram ( ECG) is given below: --Sinus bradycardia. The lesion was successfully stented. Comment by K EN G RAUER, MD ( 12/22 /2022 ): = Brilliant post by Dr. Aslanger — with emphatic illustration of "the difference in OMI vs STEMI philosophy" — in action! No reciprocal ST-segment depression (STD). --QT
