Overview

The key findings to look for on an ECG is the ST elevation which is characteristic of myocardial infarction. However, The major challenge is the differential between NSTE-ACS and non-cardiac chest pain. Diffuse ST elevation may point to the diagnosis of pericarditis. A serial ECG should be obtained to evaluate for continued or progression of myocardial injury over time.

Electrocardiogram

2021 AHA/ACC/ASE/CHEST/SAEM/SCCT/ SCMR Guideline for the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Chest Pain: A Report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Joint Committee on Clinical Practice Guidelines[1]

Class I
"1 In patients presented with chest pain and non diagnostic ECG, performing serial ECG is recommended, especially in patients with high clinical suspicion of ACS, persistent symptoms, or clinical condition deterioration, . (Level of Evidence C-EO)"
Class I
"2 In patients with chest pain and evidence of ischemia on ECG, treatment should be done based on the guideline of STEMI, NSTE-ACS (Level of Evidence C-EO)"
Class IIa
"3 In patients with chest pain and nondiagnostic ECG and evidence of intermediate to high clinical suspicion of ACS, leads V7-V9 should be taken for evaluation of posterior STEMI (Level of Evidence B-NR)"

An electrocardiogram is usually required for the initial evaluation of chest pain. It is very useful for the diagnosis of several etiologies of chest pain such as:

Acute coronary syndrome

  • A standard 12 lead ECG is recommended in all patients with chest pain within 10 minutes of presentation if acute coronary syndrome is suspected. [2][3]
  • Findings on an ECG suggestive of ACS include [4][5], ST elevation, ST depression and a new left bundle branch block (LBBB)
  • It is important to note that a normal ECG does not rule out the presence of an acute myocardial infarction as an ECG can show a hyper-acute T wave [6][7] [8] as an early presentation.
  • If an initial ECG is non-diagnostic and there is still a high clinical suspicion of an MI, a repeat ECG should be conducted.
  • It is helpful to have precious ECGs of a patient to determine if observed findings are new.

Shown below is an ECG demonstrating clear ST elevation in the right precordial leads depicting STEMI. A coronary angiography revealed a proximal right coronary artery occlusion. [9]

Pericarditis

  • ECG findings in patients with pericarditis may mirror that seen in acute myocardial infarction and carrying changes may be seen as the disease progresses.
  • Findings on an ECG suggestive of pericarditis at different levels include: [11]
  • Stage I: ST elevation in all leads; PTa depression (depression between the end of the P wave and the beginning of the QRS complex)
  • Stage II: Pseudonormalization (transition)
  • Stage III: Inverted T waves
  • Stage IV: Normalization

Exercise ECG

Contraindications

There are conditions that may render the exercise ECG useless for assessing acute coronary syndromes such as:

  • Abnormal ST changes on resting ECG;
  • Digoxin;
  • Left bundle branch block;
  • Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern;
  • Ventricular paced rhythm (not useful for establishing ischemia);
  • Unable to achieve ≥5 METs or unsafe to exercise;
  • High-risk unstable angina or acute myocardial ischemia;
  • Uncontrolled heart failure;
  • Significant cardiac arrhythmias or high risk for arrhythmias caused by QT prolongation;
  • Severe aortic stenosis;
  • Severe hypertension (eg, ≥200/110mmHg);
  • Acute illness.[15]
