Implication

Urges caution in ECG-based ischemic size estimates; leaves open human translation of lead-specific ST relationships.

Structured PICO

How do precordial and epicardial TQ and ST segment deflections relate to the size, shape, and transmural location of myocardial ischemia in a pig model?

P
Population
Anesthetized closed-chest pigs
I
Intervention
Myocardial ischemia produced by occluding large and small coronary artery branches
O
Outcome
TQ and ST segment deflections recorded from precordial and epicardial locationssurrogate

Precordial and epicardial ECG TQ and ST segment deflections are complex functions of ischemic geometry, making their interpretation regarding ischemic size and shape difficult.
