Acute Coronary Syndrome (Heart Attack) - Unstable Angina vs NSTEMI vs STEMI | With ECGs

Acute Coronary Syndrome refers to a spectrum of conditions including Unstable Angina, Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction and ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. In this video we look at the pathology behind acute coronary syndrome, the differences between Unstable angina, NSTEMI and STEMI, as well as the signs and symptoms, diagnosis (including ECG changes!) and treatment of each.

Gread explanation

[@dennissilber287]

The illustrations corresponding to the different levels of severity of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) can be seen in the corresponding degrees of ACS but it is often not the case that EKG abnormalities as displayed can be seen. In unstable angina (UA) or NSTEMI there may be minor, subtle, or non diagnostic abnormalities. Dynamic EKG abnormalities that appear and resolve as symptoms occur and resolve can be seen and are strongly suggestive of ACS. In STEMI though total occlusion is usually the case a tight non occlusive thrombus proximally can impair perfusion to a large enough area of myocardium to cause ST elevations. It is possible that ischemia or infarction due to a circumflex artery thrombosis can cause no EKG abnormalities in the lateral leads at all, the so called “blind spot”.

[@bbmtge]

Exactly why did you find it necessary to try to impress anyone by posting on aclip that is very basic? The funny thing about people like you is that there is no goal to inform, only to impress. Utter foolishness.

why do we give beta blocker for left ventricular systolic dysfxn?

[@Old_Sailor85]

Or nothing...I'm recovering from open-heart surgery (CABG, etc.). My EKG/ECG was normal. It took a blood test to indicate I was having a heart attack. So a normal ECG does not necessarily mean you are OK!

[@8ty6th]

ekg will only show your rhythm at that time, sometimes it can show old infarct. however acutely, a troponin level will indicate damage to the cardiac tissue. certain conditions can cause a chronically elevated troponin.

[@CalciumChloride4]

That’s called an NSTEMI

[@clarkkent4872]

How to differentiate st depression of NSTEMI and st depression in anterior leads due to posterior STEMI??

[@RhesusMedicine]

Thanks for the question- additional ECG leads (V7-V9) placed on the posterior chest wall would reveal ST elevation in a posterior STEMI. Having ST depression in the anterior leads with a clinical picture suggestive of MI should raise the question of a posterior STEMI (as the management would change from NSTEMI to STEMI). Bear in mind though that isolated posterior STEMI is less frequent, it's more common to have it in the presence of an inferior or lateral STEMI. Life In The Fast Lane (LIFTL) have a really good article: litfl.com/posterior-myocardial-infarction-ecg-library/

"in women than in males" really weird

[@sleepynoodles6425]

Maybe women since they are more pain tolerant just shrug off the pain and think nothing of it?

[@broformation6530]

@@sleepynoodles6425 literally the opposite of your statement is true and I was referring to how he he used 'males' instead of men or used women instead of females. Weird to objectify one sex and not the other.

[@sleepynoodles6425]

@@broformation6530 you're maybe right about men being more pain tolerant (pls link studies I'd like to learn more since I'm pretty sure women tend to be ignored when it comes to pain studies because of hormonal imbalances and studies inaccuracies) But then maybe he means women tend to shrug off any pain they had? Especially during cardiovascular pain so you should look out for them and not underestimate a woman's "slight" chest pain complaint About your second opinion We're in a scientific video literally using females/males women/men doesn't matter in the slightest and for sure doesn't mean objectifying and literally no one cares. This is not reddit. I mean have you read any medical books? It's pretty normal And I'm sure the video writers didn't look twice at the terms since they are interchangeable and doesn't matter the use of one over the other

[@broformation6530]

@@sleepynoodles6425 I'm ok with using male/female. I found it weird he avoided using female but had no problem with male.

[@sleepynoodles6425]

@@broformation6530 again it's because the terms are interchangeable so the writer didn't look twice on what word was used for which and they for sure as hell didn't think of whatever you're thinking Don't overthink this, in a scientific video. This isn't reddit.
