STE limited to aVR is due to diffuse subendocardial ischemia, but what of STE in both aVR and V1? The additional ST Elevation in V1 is not usually seen with diffuse subendocardial ischemia, and suggests that something else, like STEMI from LAD occlusion, could be present. Was this: 1) ACS with ischemia and spontaneous reperfusion?

His response: “subendocardial ischemia. Smith : It should be noted that, in subendocardial ischemia, in contrast to OMI, absence of wall motion abnormality is common. With the history of Afib, CTA abdomen was ordered to r/o mesenteric ischemia vs ischemic colitis vs small bowel obstruction. Anything more on history?

This may result in ischemia (lack of oxygen to the heart muscle), causing parts of the heart to weaken and enlarge. Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart and can help detect abnormalities in the heart’s rhythm that might contribute to enlargement.

An electrocardiogram is a machine used to record the heart's electrical activity. Cardiac arrest Cardiac arrest is a medical emergency in which the heart stops pumping blood to the body. Electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, and some other tests are done for patients with cardiac arrest.

The clinical significance of ARCA-LCS lies in its potential to cause myocardial ischemia or sudden cardiac death, particularly under physical exertion. Transthoracic echocardiogram, bilateral carotid Doppler ultrasound, and electrocardiogram were normal. No previous history of hypertension or diabetes.
