May aid ECG diagnosis of AMI in ventricular paced rhythms; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before practice change.
Can specific 12-lead ECG interpretation strategies assist in diagnosing acute myocardial infarction in patients with ventricular paced rhythms?
Knowledge of anticipated ST-segment-T-wave changes in ventricular paced rhythms can aid in the accurate ECG diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction.
