How often do you see an ECG that is just a little off? Maybe the T wave is flat, oddly-shaped or inverted. Maybe the ST segment is coved, very minimally-depressed or shows some J point elevation.
Classic changes of ischemia may be described or explained as follows: 1. ST-segment elevations or depressions that are usually localized (but may be diffuse) and may be associated with such T-wave ...
The TP segment is the portion of the ECG from the end of the T wave to the beginning of the P wave. This segment should always be at baseline and is used as a reference to determine whether the ST ...
Electrocardiographic changes are common and typically evolve through four stages: Stage I: diffuse ST-segment elevation (typically concave up) and PR-segment depression are recorded in the first hours ...
In acute pericarditis, the ECG typically shows a pattern of PR segment depression, concave ST-segment elevation, and T-wave inversion. 4 Myocarditis alone usually presents with nonspecific ST-segment ...

The downsloping PR segment and the upsloping ST segment do not make a smooth, scooped-out curvature. In fact, there is a 3-mm dropoff of the ST segment (the J point, the beginning of the ST segment, ...
A 68-year-old man without previous comorbidities presented to the emergency department with complaints of palpitations and giddiness. On examination, his pulse rate was 92 beats per minute, and his ...
