Description

In My 2nd Series of 4 Talks (Nov. 2,9,16,30- 2023) — I will present a user-friendly approach to Systematic 12-lead ECG interpretation — with a focus on HOW to Recognize acute OMI ( = acute coronary Occlusion-based Myocardial Infarction) — when STEMI criteria are not present.

My GOAL is to illustrate via specific ECG examples how the "STEMI Paradigm" is outdated — because it overlooks many acute OMIs that would benefit from prompt cardiac cath with PCI.

The November 2 Talk — is based on ECG Blog #351 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-351 ).

The November 9 Talk — is based on ECG Blog #292 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-292 ).

Summary

This is my ECG Talk #6 (the 2nd talk in my Series on Systematic 12-lead ECG Interpretation) — with focus on recognizing acute OMI ( = acute coronary Occlusion-based Myocardial Infarction) — when STEMI criteria are not present. I continue with my GOAL of illustrating via specific ECG examples how the "STEMI Paradigm" is outdated — because it overlooks many acute OMIs that would benefit from prompt cardiac cath with PCI. Today's case is entitled, "Why did the patient die?" (based on ECG Blog #292 = https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-292 ). ECG Blog #205 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-205 ) — reviews my Systematic Approach. ECG Blog #193 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-193 ) — reviews the concept of OMI (predicting the "Culprit" Artery). ECG Blog #400 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-400 ) — reviews the concept of "Dynamic" ECG changes.

Learning objectives

1. To continue with review of my user-friendly approach to Systematic 12-Lead ECG interpretation — which I illustrate through application of my approach to interpretation of specific ECG cases. 2. To continue with the concept of "OMI" — in which attention to certain ECG features is far superior to reliance on the outdated "STEMI Paradigm" for recognizing acute coronary occlusions that may benefit from prompt cardiac catheterization with PCI. 3. How to quickly recognize Posterior MI without using posterior leads (because posterior leads are more likely to overlook this diagnosis!)
