EKG Changes
- According to the AHA, there are no diagnostic EKG changes for NSTEMI
- ST elevations in II, III and aVF with depression in V2 represents and inferior-posterior STEMI
- ST depressions in the precordial leads may represent posterior MI
- Continuous ST segment trend monitoring may pick up very dynamic ischemic changes (though this is almost never done anymore)
