Step 1 to missing posterior MI is relying on the STEMI criteria. A prospective validation of STEMI criteria based on the first ED ECG found it was only 21% sensitive for Occlusion MI, and disproportionately missed inferoposterior OMI.[1] But it is still STEMI negative. A 15 lead ECG was done (below). In a study last year, 14.4%

Considering their multidirectional effect on atherosclerosis, new inflammatory biomarkers integrating various leukocyte subgroups have been proposed to calculate the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and systemic inflammatory index (SII).Aim:The All patients had interventional PCI with balloon and stent insertion.
