EKG 3 is diagnostic for developing re-occlusion, and EKG 4 proves that the nitrates relieved the ischemia. = Starovoytov, A., Robinson, S.,

Computer read: "Non-specific ST abnormality, consider anterior subendocardial ischemia" There are very poor R-waves in V1-V4 suggesting old anterior MI. Firstly, subendocardial ischemia does not localize on 12-Lead ECG. But the real question at hand is: Are these precordial ST-depressions a result of subendocardial ischemia?

This strongly suggests reperfusing RCA ischemia. Troponins, echocardiogram An echocardiogram showed inferobasilar hypokinesis, further supporting a diagnosis of regional ischemia , likely of the area supplied by the RCA. There is also a Q-wave in III. There is also subtle STD in V3-V5. The initial troponin I was elevated at 0.75

Critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) represents the end stage of peripheral artery disease (PAD), when poor circulation due to blockages in the arteries causes symptoms including numbness, sores that will not heal, gangrene, and extreme pain. When we save a limb, we save a life.
