It should be known that each category can easily manifest the generic subendocardial ischemia pattern. In general, subendocardial ischemia is a consequence of global supply-demand mismatch that usually ameliorates upon addressing, and mitigating, the underlying cause. What’s interesting is that the ECG can only detect ischemia.

Additional architectural changes include systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve, endothelial dysfunction at the level of the coronary arterial bed, and ventricular diastolic dysfunction. There is LBBB-like morphology with persistent patterns of subendocardial ischemia. A mid-LAD culprit lesion was identified and stented.

Pulmonary edema, with tachycardia and OMI on the ECG -- what is going on?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

The patient was started on heparin for possible NSTEMI vs demand ischemia. increasing stenosis, ischemia, volume changes, increased blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, etc.) The scan showed a bicuspid aortic valve with severe stenosis and coronary artery disease. Smith : these ECGs do NOT show subendocardial ischemia.
