ST depression compatible with ischemia
MSP221 recording · 12
Clinical history not documented in this image source.
Original waveform retained; quiz cropping only removes off-tracing interpretation or a row containing an answer label. Some sources are rhythm strips rather than a full 12-lead ECG.
Look for
- ST depression in the second and third strips.
- Downsloping affected ST segment.
Where to look. In the second and third strips, compare the upper tracing’s ST segment with baseline.
The upper tracing in the second and third strips shows downsloping ST depression. The source describes this as suggestive of ischemia. It does not by itself confirm infarction.
The source diagnosis is retained; no additional clinical cause is inferred.
