PR depression, which suggests pericarditis 4. We also showed that, of 47 cases of pericarditis with ST elevation, none had ST depression in aVL. ) The patient underwent an emergent formal echocardiogram to look for wall motion abnormality: The estimated left ventricular ejection fraction is 63 %. No wall motion abnormality.

When there is MI extending all the way to the epicardium (transmural), that infarcted epicardium is often inflamed (postinfarction regional pericarditis, or PIRP). What complication is the patient with post-infarction regional pericarditis at risk for? No resolution of ST elevation. The T-waves are persistently positive. Lessons : 1.
