Marked ST elevation in V7-9 with Q-wave formation confirms involvement of the posterior wall, making this an inferior-lateral-posterior STEMI (= big territory infarct!). Example 2a In this ECG, posterior MI is suggested by the presence of: ST depression in V2-3 Tall, broad R waves (> 3...
IMPORTANCE OF 15 LEAD ECG , conduction defects and arrhythmias are very high in PWMI and hence early detection is important.KEYWORDS: Posterior wall myocardial infarction; Posterior leads; Inferior wall MI; Complete heart block; Syncope; Bradycardia; Hypotension...

Background Automated detection of myocardial infarctions (MIs) in the RV and the posterior wall of LV are difficult in the standard 12-lead ECG. Addition of right-sided and posterior leads can improve detection sensitivity. This study shows the relationship between number of right and posterior ...

In conclusion, about 70% of patients with acute inferior MI also had involvement of right ventricle or posterior wall or both. Theprognosis appeared to be worse if there was RV卤 PW involvement. It may be worthwhile to perform 18-lead ECG routinely for patients with acute inferior MI.CHIU-...
