Myocardial Infarction and Electrocardiographic Patterns Simulating Myocardial Infarction
2008, Chou's Electrocardiography in Clinical Practice: Adult and PediatricRelationship between myocardial viability and the predischarge electrocardiographic pattern in patients with first anterior wall acute myocardial infarction
2003, International Journal of CardiologyRelation between evolutionary ST segment and T-wave direction and electrocardiographic prediction of mycardial infarct size and left ventricular function among patients with anterior wall q-wave acute myocardial infarction who received reperfusion therapy
2000, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :In contrast, most of the previous studies have concentrated on ST-segment and T-wave dynamics within the first few hours of thrombolytic therapy, and found that rapid resolution of the ST-segment deviation and T-wave height, compared with the initial electrocardiogram10,11 and early inversion of the T waves,11,12 are associated with reperfusion or preservation of left ventricular function. However, many reports have demonstrated that in patients with AMI, the ST-T segments acquire a final configuration only 3 to 10 days after onset.13 We assume that our patients with isoelectric ST segment and negative T waves 3 to 10 days after AMI had successful and stable reperfusion with salvage of ischemic myocardium, and thus smaller final infarct size and better ejection fraction.
