💥Understanding Different Types of STEMI (ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction) A STEMI is a severe type of heart attack where there's a long-lasting blockage in one of the heart's major arteries. This blockage causes significant damage to the heart muscle and requires immediate medical attention. Here are the different types of STEMI, each affecting various parts of the heart: 1. Anterior STEMI: Blockage in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery, affecting the front wall of the heart. 2. Infer

📌STEMI: Your Quick-Reference Guide for Every Cath Lab Scenario! 🚨 6 Critical STEMI Types 👉🏻 Must Know 🔹 Anterior | Inferior | Right Ventricular 🔹 Posterior | Septal | Lateral 💡✅ Artery Culprits: LAD = Anterior/Septal STEMI (⚠️ High risk of LV dysfunction, septal rupture). RCA = Inferior/RV STEMI (💧 Fluids > Nitrates). LCx = Posterior/Lateral STEMI (🔍 Always check for associated mitral regurgitation). ✅ ECG Life-Savers: V1–V4 → Anterior II, III, aVF → Inferior V7–V9 → Posterior V4R → Rig

🧠📚Let’s take a deep dive into Myocardial Infarction - STEMI vs. NSTEMI 🫀STEMI (ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction) -COMPLETE blockage of one of the coronary arteries providing blood flow to the heart -STEMIs are diagnosed when the ST segment rises higher than normal 🫀NSTEMI (Non- ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction) -PARTIAL blockage of one of the coronary arteries providing blood flow to the heart -*NSTEMI think NOT a complete block -You may see ST depression or T wave inversion (keep in min
