1-3] But these studies were very short duration and used cardiology interpretation of ECGs or emergent angiography rather than patient outcomes. Other signs of OMI that complement the ECG include new regional wall motion abnormalities and refractory ischemia References 1. Hughes KE , Lewis SM , Katz L , Jones J. Acad Emerg Med.

Accordingly, in the algorithm by Cai et al for patients with LBBB and ischemic symptoms ( See below ) — the first indication for PCI is clinical: patients with hemodynamic instability or acute heart failure. So there is now high pre-test probability + refractory ischemia + Modified Sgarbossa + dynamic ECG changes.

Such findings would normally suggest primary ischemia with concomitant surveillance of coronary occlusion, but these ST/T changes might very well be secondary to the Escape mechanism at hand. The patient advised overall improvement with complete resolution of symptoms. Hospital transport was unremarkable.

There is no ST depression in V6, II, III, or aVF, and no significant ST elevation in aVR, all confirming that the ST vector is not consistent with diffuse subendocardial ischemia, but rather a focal ST vector pointed at the posterior wall. There is sinus rhythm with normal QRS complex and ST depression in V2-V5, maximal in V3-V4.

It is a long read, meant only for those who want to know the hidden intricacies in the concept of “Time window” in STEMI and its important Implication in patient care. [08/11, 08/11, 12:13] Dr S Venkatesan: Time windows are related to time taken for myocardial cell death because of ischemia.
