Key result
Prehospital recognition of STE in aVR with inferolateral depression enables rapid triage for primary PCI.
Why the study?
Prompt recognition of ST elevation in the aVR lead by Emergency Medical Service physicians is critical due to its indication of a critical coronary lesion in acute coronary syndrome.

May support prehospital aVR ECG triage in suspected ACS; leaves open need for prospective validation before practice change.
Todorović et al. (2020) conducted a case report in Acute Coronary Syndrome (n=3). Prehospital recognition of aVR ST elevation prompting early invasive strategy was evaluated. Prehospital recognition of ST elevation in aVR coupled with inferolateral depression accurately identified severe acute coronary syndrome and facilitated immediate transport for primary PCI.
