Myocardial Ischemia & infarction: Cellular changes, ECG and symptoms

…supplies are limited. In order to reduce oxygen demands, cardiac myocytes stop contracting under anaerobic conditions (i.e during ischemia). These two measures – i.e…

The left ventricle in myocardial ischemia and infarction

…ventricle is supplied by the right marginal artery (r. marginalis dx), which originates from the right coronary artery (RCA). The RCA also supplies the inferior…

Factors that modify the natural course in acute myocardial infarction (AMI)

…for now, it is sufficient to note that the more myocardium supplied by an artery, the greater the ischemic area in case of occlusion. Ischemic…

Supraventricular and intraventricular conduction defects in myocardial ischemia and infarction

…branch. Coronary artery dominance The coronary artery that supplies the PDA (posterior descending coronary artery), which supplies the inferior wall of the left ventricle, determines…

A new ECG biomarker for sudden cardiac death

…link raw waveforms to reliable cause of death data. The current study This paper supplies that ingredient. The authors trained a convolutional deep learning model…

Introduction to Coronary Artery Disease (Ischemic Heart Disease)

…workload leads to increased oxygen demand but the stenosis limits the volume that can be delivered to the heart muscle supplied by the atherosclerotic artery…
