Dr. Smith’s ECG blog is the ultimate online resource for learning electrocardiography.
And be sure to review Dr. Smith’s Simplified STEMI(-) OMI Patterns Reference Sheet.
In this post I link to and review the “Teaching Images” post from Dr. Smith’s ECG blog. The post consists of 18 outstanding slides covering aspects of Occlusion MI.
Note to Myself: I’m going to list the title of each of the eighteen slides and I’ll link to each of the graphic on Dr. Smith’s blog post, Teaching Images.
Slides:
The OMI Progression on ECG
Occlusion-Reperfusion Era
T Waves: Hyperkalemia vs. Hyperacute
V Leads ECGs Of Hyperkalemia And Of Hyperacute T-Waves
[Flow Chart Of] The ACS Spectrum using OMI vs. Non-Omi Primarily
[Flow Chart Of] The ACS Spectrum Using STEMI vs. NSTEMI Primarily
Mortality Effects of Thrombolytics for Each Paradigm Extrapolated from FTT Meta-analysis
The Changing Paradigms Of OMI
Q-Wave vs Non-Q-Wave –> The Reperfusion Era –> STEMI vs. NSTEMI –> The Occlusion – Reperfusion Era –> OMI vs. NOMI
Differentiation of Anterior ST Depression: Posterior OMI or Global Supply/Demand Mismatch?
