We recorded an ECG in which V1-V3 were put in the position of V4R-V6R, and V4-6 were placed in V7-9 to (academically) confirm posterior OMI. I say academically because the STD in V2 is diagnostic -- posterior leads are NOT necessary. What to do? RVMI explains part of the shock.
Inference Established that FFR-guided PCI is superior to angiography-guided PCI in multivessel CAD, reducing unnecessary revascularizations and improving outcomes. The goal was to determine whether using FFR to identify functionally significant stenoses (FFR 0.80) for stenting, rather than relying solely on angiographic appearance.
