For those who depend on echocardiogram to confirm the ECG findings of ischemia, this should be sobering. Characteristic electrocardiographic pattern indicating a critical stenosis high in left anterior descending coronary artery in patients admitted because of impending myocardial infarction. The peak troponin I was 0.364 ng/ml.

Successful primary angioplasty of the mid-circumflex artery towards the main marginal branch with the implantation of a drug-eluting stent. The echocardiogram shows a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 55% with marked basal and mid inferolateral and basal anterolateral hypokinesia. Good angiographic result.

I think a good start would be a posterior EKG and a high quality contrast echocardiogram read by an expert. The lesion was intervened on with balloon angioplasty and had subsequent TIMI 3 flow. Occlusion Myocardial Infarction (OMI) often does not present with diagnostic ST elevation, or even any STE, especially in dialysis patients.
