Just in case you didn’t know, Mark Glencorse (999Medic.com) is back from his hiatus from blogging.
Also, congratulations to Mark on his new column in the Journal of Paramedic Practice (JPP) called Blog Watch! The August 2010 edition is out and Mark was kind enough to include the Prehospital 12-lead ECG blog.
Mark mentions the case study 58 year old female CC: Chest pain which meets all three of Sgarbossa’s criteria for identifying acute STEMI in the presence of LBBB.
Actually, it meets two of the original criteria, but all three if you include the modified criterion of discordant ST-elevation > 0.2 the depth of the S-wave (ST/QRS ratio).
(You know, it hasn’t been all that long since I moved over to FireEMSBlogs.com but my old blog looks sort of ugly, doesn’t it?)
Thanks, Mark! Welcome back.
