Primary ST and T wave abnormalities in the diagnosis of acute anterior myocardial infarction during permanent ventricular pacing

S S Barold et al. J Electrocardiol. 1976.

Abstract

The electrocardiographic diagnosis of myocardial infarction in patients with ventricular pacemakers is often difficult. This report describes the electrocardiograms of two patients with permanent ventricular pacemakers in whom the diagnosis of acute anterior myocardial infarction could be made with confidence by observing the evolution of primary ST and T wave abnormalities in the absence of specific QRS changes.
