General
- 12 Lead EKG: Injuries
- Inferior wall injury
- ST-elevation means injury has occurred (most times)
- ST depression means there is ischemia
- Anterior-septal wall injury
- V1, V2, V3
- No R wave present, likely previously infarcted (no ST elevation) or currently infarcting (ST elevation)
- V1, V2, V3
- When looking at EKG…
- First check inferior leads 2, 3, and aVF = look at inferior wall first
-
- ST elevations seen
- Inferior wall MI
- ST depressions seen
- Inferior wall MI –> could be ischemia (ST depressions usually mean ischemia) or it is called reciprocal change
- Reciprocal changes should be gone in 24 hours–> if not than = ischemia
- Inferior wall MI –> could be ischemia (ST depressions usually mean ischemia) or it is called reciprocal change
- Lateral wall MI
- ST elevation v5-v6
- ST elevations seen
-
- Inferior wall injury
