Figures & data
Figure 1. ECG (50 mm/s) shows the global ischemia ECG pattern: ST depression and inverted T waves maximally in leads V4–5 and ST elevation in lead aVR.
Figure 2. Distribution of ECG changes of all consecutive patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome. Rates are based on the TACOS study, n = 1,188.
