1 12 Lead ECG interpretation Ischaemic Changes Work Shop Hayley Coxon
2 Topics covered Recap on ECG format and basics Normal ECG ECG changes in myocardial ischaemia/infarction ST segment T wave Q wave Acute MI locations and reciprocal changes Other causes of T wave and ST changes Practice ECGs
3 ECG Paper 1 large box = 0.2 seconds 5 large boxes = 1 second 10 mm/1mv Reference 1 small box = 0.04 seconds Time
4 P, QRS & T Wave Isoelectric line
5 Normal Intervals P-R interval: sec (3 to 5 small squares) QRS width: sec (2 to 3 small squares) PR interval QRS complex QT interval Q-T interval: sec *The PR interval should really be referred to as the PQ interval, however it is commonly referred as the PR interval.
6 Lead Groups Limb Leads Chest Leads (precordial leads) Lead I avr V1 V4 Lead II avl V2 V5 Lead III avf V3 V6 Bipolar Unipolar Unipolar
7 Standard Bipolar Leads I II III - I + - Einthovens - Triangle II III + +
8 Augmented Unipolar Leads + + Augmented Voltage Right (avr) Augmented Voltage Left (avl) avr will always be negative if the limb leads are placed correctly + Augmented Voltage Foot (avf)
9 Limb leads Left axis -150 av R -30 av L I Right axis +120 III +90 av F +60 II
10 R Wave Progression 1 r V6 2 R S V1 1 q V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6
11 12 Lead ECG Check List Remember Always treat the patient - not the ECG. 1. The PR interval is between 0.12 & 0.2 sec (3-5 small squares). 2. The QRS duration is <0.11 sec (<3 small squares). 3. The QRS complex should be predominantly upright in leads I & II. 4 QRS & T waves tend to have the same general direction in the limb leads. 1. Confirm that avr is negative (if not check limb lead placement). 2. The R wave in the precordial leads must grow from V1 to at least V4. 3. The ST segment should start isoelectric except in V1 & V2 where it may be slightly elevated. 4. The P waves should be upright in I, II & V2 to V6 5. There should be no Q waves > 0.04 seconds (1 small square) in width in I, II, V2 to V6. 10 The T wave must be upright in I, II, V2 to V6. Chamberlain DA. Personal communication
12 Normal 12 Lead ECG
13 ECG patterns of myocardial ischaemia and infarction ST segment depression/elevation T waves changes Hyperacute Inverted T waves Biphasic T waves Flattened T waves Pathological Q waves U-wave inversion less well-known
14 ST Segment
15 ST Segment 1 2 3
16 J Point J point - starting point when measuring ST segment deviation.
17 J Point Examples
18 T Wave
19 Hyperacute T waves Broad, asymmetrically peaked or hyperacute T-waves are seen in the early stages of STEMI
20 Inverted T waves
21 Biphasic T waves Myocardial ischaemia Waves go up then down
22 Flattened T waves Dynamic T-wave flattening due to anterior ischaemia (left) T waves return to normal once the ischaemia resolves (right)
23 Q Wave The septum depolarises from left to right
24 Q waves Represents the normal left-to-right depolarisation of the interventricular septum Small septal Q waves are typically seen in the left-sided leads (I, avl, V5 and V6) Small Q waves are normal in most leads Deeper Q waves (>2 mm) may be seen in leads III and avr as a normal variant Under normal circumstances, Q waves are not seen in the right-sided leads (V1-3)
25 Pathological Q Waves > 1 mm wide > 2 mm deep > 25% of depth of QRS complex Seen in leads V1-3
26 A normal 12-lead ECG DOES NOT rule out an acute myocardial infarction
27 Acute Myocardial Infarction ST elevation >2mm in V1-V3 and >1mm in all other leads in >2 contiguous leads 1. Myocardial injury presents as raised ST 1. Infarction can present as Q wave 1.

37 Reciprocal Changes If a lead is looking directly at the infarct site it will produce ST segment elevation When a lead sees the infarct from the opposite perspective, the ST segment may become depressed in that lead II, III avf I, avl, V leads
