In leads V1-2, the ST segment is elevated, which begins from the top of the R' wave and is downsloping, ending with an inverted T wave. These findings are characteristic of the Brugada ECG pattern.

Acute myocardial infarction with or without ST-segment elevation (STEMI or non-STEMI) is a common cardiac emergency, with the potential for substantial morbidity and mortality. The management of ...

Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is estimated to occur in more than 500,000 people in the US every year. With the introduction of reperfusion therapy by fibrinolysis or primary ...

Maximum ST-segment deviation in the single ECG lead proves to be a simpler and more accurate predictor of mortality in acute MI than the sum of early resolution of ST-segment elevation, according ...

ST segment elevation in the anterior leads (V3 and V4) and sometimes in septal and lateral leads, depending on the extent of the infarction.

KARACHI: Cardiologists at the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) have revealed that nearly 50 percent of ...

A study has found that patients with peripheral artery disease and acute myocardial infarction have worse in-hospital outcomes.

A 55-year-old man had an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. An evaluation showed 2-mm ST-segment elevations in the inferior leads on electrocardiography, cardiogenic shock, and a new systolic murmur. ...
