Educational Pearls:
- Early repolarization a benign EKG pattern that can mimic an anterior STEMI
- Can be seen in the anterior leads typically in young male patients
- Can differentiate Early Repolarization vs Anterior STEMI by looking at four variables:
-
- Corrected QT interval
- QRS amplitude in V2
- R wave amplitude in V4
- ST elevation 60 ms after J point in V3
- These four variables can be plugged into a formula (available on MDCalc)
- Note that a longer QT is more corelated with STEMI
