Overview
There are no ECG findings associated with DES.
Electrocardiogram
There are no ECG findings associated with DES. But ECG is done to exclude variant angina due to higher concurrent association of variant angina with DES than coronary artery disease. So ST segment elevation is the most frequent ECG abnormality than ST depression.[1]
