Ischemia, Injury & Infarction
Definitions Injury/Infarct Recognition Localization & Evolution Reciprocal Changes The High Acuity Patient
The Three I's
Ischemia
lack of oxygenation ST segment depression or T wave inversion
Injury
prolonged ischemia ST segment elevation
Infarct
death of tissue may or may not show a Q wave
Review of Waveform Components
Waveform Components R Wave
First positive deflection
R wave includes the down stroke returning to the baseline
Waveform Components Q Wave
First negative deflection before the R wave
Q wave includes the negative down stroke and return to baseline
Waveform Components S Wave
Negative deflection following the R wave
S wave includes departure from and return to baseline
Waveform Components QRS
Q waves
Can occur normally in several leads
Normal Q waves called physiologic
Physiologic Q waves
< .04 sec (40ms)
Pathologic Q
>.04 sec (40ms)
