Academic Ischemia Outcomes 
Stroke Journal
NOVEMBER 9, 2023
A combined effort from academic investigators, industry, and regulators is needed to improve imaging technologies and, ultimately, patient outcomes. Imaging in acute ischemic stroke treatment has advanced significantly, but important challenges remain that need to be addressed.

In some cases the ischemia can be seen "through" the flutter waves, whereas in other cases the arrhythmia must be terminated before the ischemia can be clearly distinguished. First , there can simply be diffuse ST depressions (which obligates reciprocal STE in aVR) associated with tachycardia which are not indicative of ischemia.

So, we desperately required to break this inappropriate menace with evidence base like COURAGE, ISCHEMIA, BARI-2D, These studies tried to apply some breaks, but the force was weak and couldn’t abolish a pseudo-academic vice. There seems to be a non-academic indication for doing this study to undo the damage done by ORBITA-1.

The COMPARE 60/80 HBR trial is the first randomized clinical trial conducted after the release of the ARC HBR (Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk) guidelines, enrolling only HBR patients as defined by these criteria. If you enjoy this content, please share it with a colleague

In this patient's case, the RV ischemia manifested as dramatic anterior hyperacute T waves. This degree of STE is a bit atypical for LAD ischemia. the investigators reviewed outcomes in 118 patients presenting with NSTEMI. Remember that the RV is the most anterior chamber. Here is a transverse image of a CT showing this.

The baseline ECG is basically normal with no ischemia. You can see in the lead-specific analysis that she "sees" the STD in V5, V5, and II, with STE in aVR as signs of "Not OMI", because subendocardial ischemia pattern is not the same as OMI. In my opinion, I think it looks more like subendocardial ischemia.

Traditional methods of non-invasive ischemia testing (stress EKG , stress echo, SPECT , PET , direct-to-cath) can result in false negatives 20-30 percent of the time, which can lead to undetected disease, and false positives over 50 percent of the time, which can lead to unnecessary invasive procedures.
