Sent by Dan Singer MD, written by Meyers, edits by Smith A man in his late 30s presented with acute chest pain and normal vitals except tachycardia at about 115 bpm. There is a reasonable chance of pericarditis in this case, or this could be a baseline." And this is because OMI is frequently misdiagnosed as pericarditis.
An Initial ECG was performed: Initial ECG: Sinus tachycardia with prolonged QT interval (QTc of 534 ms by Bazett). She was admitted to the ICU where subsequent ECGs were performed: ECG at 12 hours QTc prolongation, resolution of T wave alternans ECG at 24 hours Sinus tachycardia with normalized QTc interval. No ischemic ST changes.
The ECG shows sinus tachycardia, a narrow, low voltage QRS with alternating amplitudes, no peaked T waves, no QT prolongation, and some minimal ST elevation in II, III, and aVF (without significant reciprocal STD or T wave inversion in aVL). It is difficult to tell if there is collapse during diastole due to the patient’s tachycardia.
Dyspnea, Chest pain, Tachypneic, Ill appearing: Bedside Cardiac Echo gives the Diagnosis 31 Year Old Male with RUQ Pain and a History of Pericarditis. and tachycardia, 1.8. Finally , they found that S1Q3T3, precordial T-wave inversions V1-V4, and tachycardia were independent predictors of PE. What is the Diagnosis?
They include myocardial ischemia, acute pericarditis, pulmonary embolism, external compression due to mass over the right ventricular outflow tract region, and metabolic disorders like hyper or hypokalemia and hypercalcemia. These are the conditions which have to be considered or excluded as they can sometimes manifest Brugada pattern on ECG.
