Importance of measurements at or after the J-point for evaluation of ST-segment deviation and resolution during treatment for acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Determination of ST-segment deviation (STdev) and its resolution (STR) by reperfusion strategies have become important tools in the assessment of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). STdev has been measured at different time-points, i.e. at 20-80 ms after the J-point. There are no data comparing STR at different time-points. METHODS AND RESULTS: STdev was measured using a new computer-assisted workflow. The intraclass …
