MARCH 2, 2019

This ECG was recorded on a middle-aged male with sickle cell disease and diffuse pain. found that such ECG findings only represented left main ACS in 14% of such ECGs: Only 23% of patients with the aVR STE pattern had any LM disease (fewer if defined as 50% stenosis). Ischemia b. ST depression: is it ischemia?

The flutter waves can conceal or mimic ischemic repolarization findings, but here I don't see any obvious findings of OMI or subendocardial ischemia. The rhythm is 2:1 atrial flutter. The QRS is around 100 msec wide (narrow), but with very abnormal morphology including a large R-wave in V1, deep S-wave in I, R-wave in aVR.
