“…Most studies have shown a poor correlation between the electrocardiogram (ECG) results and the exact extent of myocardial involvement as determined by autopsy [5,6]. In previous studies, proximal LAD artery lesion before branching S 1 (first septal branch) and/or D 1 (first diagonal branch) could be predicted by the 11 ECG parameters [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18], namely, ST-segment depression (≥1.0 mm) in inferior leads, ST-segment elevation (≥1.0 mm) in lead aVL, ST-segment depression (≥1.0 mm) in lead aVL, ST-segment elevation (≥0.5 mm) in lead aVR, ST-segment elevation (≥2.5 mm) in lead V 1 , ST-segment elevation (<2.5 mm) in lead V 1 , STsegment elevation (≥1.0 mm) in lead V 2 , inverted U wave in lead V 1 to lead V 4 , ST-segment depression (≥1.0 mm) in lead V 5 , T inversion in lead V 4 and/or lead, and a Q wave in lead V 4 to lead V 6 . We decided to asses these ECG findings to predict whether significant lesions in the proximal LAD artery were present in patients with and without signs of anterior myocardial infarction (MI).…”
