Clinical use of the combined Sclarovsky Birnbaum Severity and Anderson Wilkins Acuteness scores from the pre-hospital ECG in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

Yama Fakhri et al. J Electrocardiol. 2014 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

This review summarizes the electrocardiographic changes during an evolving ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and discusses associated electrocardiographic scores and the potential use of these indices in clinical practice, in particular the ECG scores developed by Anderson and Wilkins estimating the acuteness of myocardial ischemia and Sclarovsky-Birnbaum's grades of ischemia evaluating the severity of ongoing ischemia.

Keywords: Anderson Wilkins acuteness score; Pre-hospital ECG; STEMI; Sclarovsky Birnbaum Severity Grades of Ischemia.
