Infarction24
STEMI7
  • This differs from the typical ECG changes in an acute STEMI, which include elevation of the ST segments in contiguous leads accompanied by reciprocal ST depression in leads remote from the site of an acute infarct. (racgp.org.au)
  • This pattern is a highly sensitive indicator of an acute STEMI. (racgp.org.au)
  • Many such patients have diagnoses other than acute STEMI, most often left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), left bundle branch block (LBBB), left ventricular aneurysm, pericarditis or the early repolarization pattern (ERP). (thoracickey.com)
  • Benign-appearing (that is, smooth and upwardly concave) ST-segment elevations can still represent an acute STEMI. (thoracickey.com)
  • ERP can usually be differentiated from acute STEMI because the ST-segment elevations in ERP are not limited to a regional (anatomic) distribution, and they are not accompanied by reciprocal ST-segment depressions. (thoracickey.com)
  • In some cases, acute anterior wall STEMI may be differentiated from the secondary ST-segment elevations of the LBBB by applying the Sgarbossa criteria (or by obtaining serial ECGs, by performing bedside echocardiography or by comparing the presenting ECG to baseline tracings). (thoracickey.com)
  • In other cases, the ST- and T-wave changes represent an acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina or non-STEMI), pulmonary embolus, digitalis effect, an electrolyte disturbance or left ventricular hypertrophy with repolarization abnormalities (the "strain" pattern). (thoracickey.com)
Patients13

  • Troponin elevation of this level can be seen in almost all forms of myocardial injury. (racgp.org.au)
  • The most common acute ECG findings of takotsubo cardiomyopathy are ST segment elevation in the praecordial leads and T-wave inversion in most leads. (racgp.org.au)
  • In earlier chapters of this atlas, we have covered several important electrocardiographic emergencies, including inferior, anterior and posterior wall ST-elevation myocardial infarctions (STEMIs) and various causes of shortness of breath (pulmonary emboli, pericardial effusion, myocarditis and the classic, everyday electrocardiographic appearance of COPD).

Pericarditis6
  • Pericarditis accounts for approximately 5% of all causes of chest pain presenting to the ED. Acute pericarditis may be complicated by the development of a pericardial effusion that, if significant enough to compress the cardiac chambers, may produce cardiac tamponade. (paramedicine.education)
  • More than 80% of cases of acute pericarditis are idiopathic (unknown) or presumably viral in origin. (paramedicine.education)
  • Electrocardiography is often diagnostic for acute pericarditis. (paramedicine.education)
  • The mainstay of treatment for acute pericarditis is pain relief and resolution of inflammation. (paramedicine.education)
  • Pericardial effusion is seen in approximately 60% of acute pericarditis cases, but cardiac tamponade is more uncommon and occurs in approximately 5% of cases. (paramedicine.education)
  • Acute pericarditis is characterized by even more diffuse ST-segment elevations, almost always involving the precordial and limb leads. (thoracickey.com)
Coronary syndromes1
  • The ST-segment elevations in leads V1-V3 must be differentiated from acute coronary syndromes. (thoracickey.com)

Inflammation2
  • Later in the post-traumatic course, hypotension may result from different reasons, including hypovolemia, depression of myocardial function, and vasodilation from inflammation and sepsis. (medicosecuador.com)
  • Myocarditis is an uncommon disease marked by inflammation myocardium and other changes to the heart muscle cells that may be acute or chronic. (paramedicine.education)
Arrhythmias1
  • In the acute setting myocarditis can cause arrhythmias, cardiac failure, cardiogenic shock and death - it is a commonly recognised cause of sudden unexplained cardiac death in young adults. (paramedicine.education)

Electrocardiogram1
Myocardium2
  • Native T1 mapping can characterise the injured myocardium and has been shown to characterise viable myocardium in the acute setting [ 8 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • In MI, an portion of myocardium is permanently destroyed due to plaque rupture and the subsequent thrombus formation causes complete occlusion of the artery which eventually leads to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). (myassignmenthelp.com)
Occlusion2
  • While striking chanares of polaro-graphic oxygen and contractility regularly occur a few seconds after coronary arterial branch occlusion, epieardial electrocardio-graphic changes are delayed and sometimes absent.1 Intramyocardial electrocardiographic studies, on the other hand, reveal that local-ized ischemia disturbs myocardial electrical activity at least as early as either oxygena-tion or contractility, and over a more exten-sive area. (1library.net)
  • The elevated ST-segment can mimic ominous patterns of acute LAD occlusion, including Wellens' sign. (thoracickey.com)

Cardiogenic shock2
  • Cardiogenic shock is defined as having a low cardiac output most commonly due to MI or an episode of acute heart failure, Kapur said. (medscape.com)
  • However, we believe that cardiogenic shock is probably more underrepresented in women, who may present with an MI or acute heart failure and may or may not be identified as having low cardiac output states until quite late. (medscape.com)
