An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is an easily accessible bedside tool for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction. The T wave is usually negative in lead aVR (augmented unipolar right arm lead). However, a positive T wave in lead aVR has been shown to be associat...
Relation of Positive T Wave in Lead aVR to Risk of Cardiovascular Mortalitydoi:10.1016/j.amjcard.2011.07.042We examined the prevalence and prognostic impact of a positive T wave in lead aVR (aVRT+) on a standard electrocardiogram in the general population. Data were collected from a large ...
We aim to investigate the role of a positive T wave in lead aVR in non-ST segment myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). METHODS: In a prospective cohort study, we included 400 patients with NSTEMI. Presentation electrocardiogram (ECG) was investigated for presence of a positive T wave as well as ...
ECGAcute myocardial infarctionBACKGROUND :A positive T wave in lead aVR (aVRT+) is an independent prognostic predictor of cardiovascular mortality in the general population as well as in cardiovascular disease. SUBJECTS AND METHODS :We evaluated the prognostic impact of aVRT+ in an ECG recorded as...

ST-elevation of =1 mm in lead aVR was noted in 19.1% (54) patients. Conclusion: A considerable number of NSTEMI patients with positive hs-cTn showed no specific ECG changes. ST-depression followed by T wave inversion and ST-elevation in aVR were the most commonly observed...
