Description

In My 2nd Series of 3 Talks (Nov. 2,9,16 — 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My GOAL is to illustrate via specific ECG examples how the "STEMI Paradigm" is outdated — because it overlooks many acute OMIs that would benefit from prompt cardiac cath with PCI. Today's case is based on ECG Blog #351 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-351 ).

ECG Blog #205 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-205 ) — reviews my Systematic Approach.

ECG Blog #246 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-246 ) — reviews the Mirror Test.

ECG Blog #193 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-193 ) — reviews the concept of OMI (predicting the "Culprit" Artery).

======================

NOTE: I have had to cancel a 4th session in this series that had been scheduled for Nov. 30. Therefore — my 3rd session on November 16, 2023 will be the LAST session in this series.

Summary

This is the 3rd and final 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 I continue with my GOAL of illustrating via specific ECG examples how the "STEMI Paradigm" is outdated — because it overlooks many acute OMIs that would benefit from prompt cardiac cath with PCI. This 3rd session will review the case presented in my ECG Blog #392 (https://tinyurl.com/KG-Blog-392 ).

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which I illustrate by means of clinical cases, how attention to certain ECG features is FAR superior to reliance on the outdated "STEMI Paradigm" for recognizing acute coronary occlusions that may benefit from prompt cardiac catheterization with PCI. 3. Review and apply the concept of "Hyperacute" T waves. 4. To emphasize the importance of the History in clinical ECG interpretation.
