On ECG, 46 patients (67.64%) had anterior wall myocardial infarction, 22 patients had inferior wall myocardial infarction (32.35%) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction was found in 69.2% of patients. Clinical profile of acute myocardial infarction young adults Hence hypotension is an important phys...
ECG in a 44-year-old man with chest pain As for the past medical history, we mention that the patient had suffered an inferior myocardial infarction with right ventricular lesions (July 2013), treated using PCI with positive clinical outcome following the procedure. Prevention of complications aft...

Although Cx was observed as the culprit artery in cases which was accompanied by posterior wall infarction, no statistically finding was detected (p= 0.3). ST-depression was detected in V1-2 leads in ECG of patients whose culprit artery was Cx (%84.6 sensitivity, %36.3 specificity, p= ...
Circumflex artery-related acute myocardial infarction: limited ECG abnormalities but poor outcome Background . Circumflex (CX) artery-related myocardial infarction (MI) is less well represented in trials on ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEM... S Rasoul,MJ Boer,H Suryapranata,... - ...
Performing an ECG with posterior leads (V7–V9) can show a primary posterior wall injury pattern with ST segment elevation. A localization schema for inferior MI is summarized in Table 10.1. View chapter Review article The Right Heart and Its Distinct Mechanisms of Development, Function, and ...
The 2 best individual criteria for inferior MI are: inferior velocity more than 0.0065 V/s (sensitivity 71%, specificity 100%) and superior distance more than 0.39 mV (sensitivity 68%, specificity 100%). These diagnostic performances are superior to those of the best criterion that involves ...
Risk factors such as previous MI, arterial hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and dislipemia, were similar for RCA and LCxA occlusions. Patients with RCA occlusion had a higher incidence of isolated IMI than patients with LCxA occlusion, 50% vs. 17%, respectively (P<0.001). Arterial ...
This study was conducted to determine whether precordial ST segment depression in admission electrocardiogram (ECG) in patients with acute phase inferior myocardial infarction (MI) eligible for thrombolytic therapy and subsequent angiographic evaluation, influences the incidence of left anterior descending ...
Conclusion: In patients with a first acute anterior MI treated with primary PCI,ST elevation in inferior leadshad significantly worse short-term and long-term outcomes compared to no ST change or ST segment depression. When can ST elevation be seen on ECG?
