Post cath ECG: Now there are hyperacute T-waves again, and recurrent ST depression in V2 This ECG would normally diagnostic of OMI until proven otherwise No further troponins were measured, but it looks like there is recurrent OMI Next day: A CT Coronary Angiogram was done (CTCA) CARDIAC MORPHOLOGY AND FUNCTION: 1. IMPRESSION: 1.

EMS 12-Lead

Cardiology felt her chest pain to be, most likely, the result of coronary supply-demand mismatch in the context of HCM endothelial remodeling (i.e. Type II MI), however decided to pursue coronary angiogram out of an abundance of caution. A mid-LAD culprit lesion was identified and stented. References Naidu, S. 40; 1234-1241.

Intravascular Imaging Can Improve Outcomes for Complex Stenting Procedures

DAIC

The ECLIPSE trial shows that use of IVI to guide coronary stenting in severely calcified lesions prevents death, stent thrombosis, and unplanned repeat procedures in this high-risk patient population. The ECLIPSE trial results were presented at the American College of Cardiology Scientific Session (ACC.25)
