Her ejection fraction was 66% ejection fraction with a fistula between the right sinus of Valsalva and the right atrium on transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) which was also seen on transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE). Postoperatively, she developed complete heart block requiring a permanent pacemaker.

However, an echocardiogram is a different test, also conducted for heart activity. Electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, and some other tests are done for patients with cardiac arrest. ECG testing is also carried out to see how medicines work during treatment and the pacemaker's functioning. ECG and EKG refer to the same thing.

The emergent echocardiogram showed normal EF, no WMA, and normal valve function. Unfortunately, this fooled the Emergency Physician and Cardiologist into an emergent angiogram for perceived "inferior STEMI." The angiogram showed completely normal coronary arteries. They rhythm returned to sinus reportedly after metoprolol IV was given.
