Acute Cardiovascular Toxicity of Cocaine
2022, Canadian Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :A post hoc analysis of that research included adding one point to the risk factors component for use of cocaine and considering the history as moderately suspicious, which yielded a sensitivity and negative predictive value close to 100%, with the acknowledgement, however, that this could lead to overtriaging of these patients.83 In patients presenting with cocaine-associated chest pain, up to 84% have been reported to have “abnormal” ECGs on presentation.52,58,68 Many of the abnormal ECGs in these often young patients are related to normal variants, including J-point and ST-segment elevations due to early repolarisation.84
