New Article published online: In inferior myocardial infarction, neither ST elevation in lead V1 nor ST depression in lead I are reliable findings for the diagnosis of right ventricular infarction
not quite sure that is what it said. STE in V1 was specific for RVMI. and even sensitivity was not that bad (generating decent LR+) if there is no STD in V2
Yes, I should have worded it better: "Absence" of STE in V1 is not reliable (unless there is also absence of STD in V2). But that gets to be a long title.
DEAR READER: I have loved receiving your comments, but I am no longer able to moderate them. Since the vast majority are SPAM, I need to moderate them all. Therefore, comments will rarely be published any more. So Sorry.
