GNT Giant negative T ,defined as more than 10mm Deep T inversions (Yamaguchi et,al )

What are the important differentials when you see this rare ECG pattern ?

Easy case but still medical errors could happen
45 year female coming with acute onset central chest pain for the last 4 hours
Triage as CAT 2 , now machine concerned about acute ischaemia

Thoughts ?

Patient with a syncope
S wave up stroke Will be more than 55 msec in V1 , V2

Which important cardiac pathology you would be concerned of ?

Takotsubo and CNS disorders are the only ones that tend to cause gross QT prolongation

81 year old BG of DM and Hypertension
4 hours Hx of acute central chest pain
ECG below .
She is otherwise stable.
Worried of an OMI ?

Early repolarisation pattern in the ECG

Seems to be not so benign always
Matters in the Emergency department ?
Yes
Chest pain —- leads to diagnostic confusion

Syncope ——- think about ER syndrome

Features of RV enlargement;
1. Rbbb
2. RV strain pattern
3. S wave in V6

Bifascicular block - RBBB + LAFB

Possible diagnosis;
1. Acute PE
2. Chronic Respiratory Disease like OSA/OHS/COPD

classical ECG changes which demarcate STEMI vs acute pericarditis “Pericarditis can cause localised ST elevation but there should be no reciprocal ST depression (except in AVR and V1)”

I have seen few cases which will challenge this teaching remotely
Your experiences ?

24 M Hx of acute pericarditis 2 years back ( no records available )

Progressive exertion induced SOB over the past 6 months and now for past week having pleuritic type chest pain
What do you think about the ECG ?
