DSAE STEMI Review, Module 4: ECG STEMI Recognition Workshop

The next several slides will present a series of ECGs for quick pattern recognition.  Upon completion, you will be directed to the final 10-Question Post-Test.

Please know that the analysis of these tracings to follow is brief.  It is not intended to be an in-depth discussion of these tracings or the clinical presentations. The fundamental challenge is to state that:

yes — this tracing is a STEMI or   

no — this tracing does not represent a STEMI

As always, the provider must carefully take into consideration, each patient’s clinical presentation, history, old ECG (when available), serial labs, old medical records and consultation (when appropriate) with PCP and/or cardiology provider/team before proceeding with a treatment plan.
