This has a poor sensitivity of 27% for MI. Historically, it has been taught that detecting myocardial ischemia is not possible on an ECG in the setting of a LBBB; however, three different changes ...

Because the earliest ECG changes of acute cardiac ischemia are in the ST-T segment, emphasis for early diagnosis and risk classification should be on ST-T segment changes. Two approaches have been ...

A decrease in blood flow to the AV nodal artery (a branch of the RCA) can result in AV nodal ischemia and AV conduction abnormalities such as the second-degree type II AV block seen in the ECG.

Most strokes are ischemic in nature with approximately one in five being cardioembolic. Routine ECG recorded through noninvasive, cheap and easily available tolls have markers that portend higher ...

Should you be taking a toothache to heart? Dental issues are among several surprising symptoms of a heart attack, according ...

A report by Mueller and colleagues has provided new information about the prognostic value of the admission ECG in cases of myocardial ischemia. The study included a cohort of 1,450 consecutive ...

Ventricular paced rhythm was detected on 12-lead ECG. The widespread opinion that this constellation does not permit a diagnosis of ischemia on 12-lead ECG is not accurate, as this example shows.
