What ecg finding is suggestive of an acute myocardsialinfarction?
An ECG finding suggestive of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the presence of ST-segment elevation in specific leads, indicating myocardial injury. Additionally, new T-wave inversions or the appearance of Q waves can also indicate a myocardial infarction. These changes reflect the loss of electrical activity in the affected heart muscle due to ischemia. Early recognition of these signs is crucial for timely intervention.
What does the medical abbreviation AMI mean?
AMI means Acute Myocardial Infarction
Why is morphine used in acute myocardial infarction?
