…pronounced in healthy arteries, which can dilate more than stenotic arteries, which are already dilated. This results in flow heterogeneity and perfusion defects in areas…

…conduction defects and waveform changes Digoxin may be used in patients with heart failure, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and in selected cases of paroxysmal supraventricular…

…QRS configurations are also indicate of previous myocardial infarction. New conduction defect Myocardial infarction/ischemia may be complicated with conduction defects (discussed in separate article).

…the fact that the Purkinje fibers run through the endocardium. It is likely that conduction defects would have been more common in myocardial ischemia otherwise.
