ELECTROCARDIOGRAM ST SEGMENT DEPRESSION AND ELEVATION IN STRESS-TESTING

Abstract

The electrocardiogram remains a crucial tool for the identification of myocardial ischemia. Important information for patient management and prognosis determination can be derived from the stress testing electrocardiogram. Leads with ST-segment elevation indicate the ischemia related coronary artery.
