Q

Where and what is the J point in reference to EKG?

A

The J (junction) point in the ECG is the point where the QRS complex joins the ST segment. It represents the approximate end of depolarization and the beginning of repolarization as determined by the surface ECG.

Q

What are the ECG contiguous leads?

A

.Contiguous leads refers to leads that direct neighbors and reflect the same anatomical area; such as anterior leads (V1–V6), inferior leads (II, aVF, III) and lateral leads (I, aVL). For example, leads V3 and V4 are contiguous; V1 and V2 are also contiguous; aVL and I are also contiguous; V3 and V5 are not contiguous]

Q

what are reciprocal leads?

A

Reciprocal change is a very important ECG finding, not only supporting the diagnosis of STEMI but also indicating a high-risk patient. Reciprocal change is defined as ST-segment depression occurring on an ECG which also has ST-segment elevation in at least 2 leads in a single anatomic segment.

Q

How do you identify LVH on an EKG?

A

look at AVL and Measure the R wave if it is > 11mm it is most likely LVH.

look at the R wave in V5 V6 and measure the height and add it to the S wave in lead 1 if > 35 LVH is likely. This is a STEMI imposter

23
Q

How do you identify a (BER)
Bening early repolarization

A

seen in patients under 50 Y/O
STE everywhere with no reciprocal changes. There is a smily face at the J-point hook and the patient VS will be stable. There is a notch at the J-point. in leads II III aVF V4 V5 V6. STEMI imposter
