Preferred Label : Acute Right Ventricular Myocardial Infarction by ECG Finding;
NCIt synonyms : Acute Right Ventricular Myocardial Infarction by EKG Finding;
NCIt related terms : Acute Right Ventricular Wall Myocardial Infarction; Acute Right ventricular MI;
NCIt definition : An electrocardiographic finding in leads V1 or V2 of an initial R wave duration greater
than or equal to 40 ms, R wave greater than S wave, upright T wave, with accompanying
ST elevation, which is suggestive of acute myocardial infarction of the ventricular
wall of the left ventricle. Evidence of inferior or lateral myocardial infarction
is usually also present. (CDISC);
Alternative definition : CDISC: An electrocardiographic finding in leads V1 or V2 of an initial R wave duration
greater than or equal to 40 ms, R wave greater than S wave, upright T wave, with accompanying
ST elevation, which is suggestive of acute myocardial infarction of the ventricular
wall of the left ventricle. Evidence of inferior or lateral myocardial infarction
is usually also present. Additional criteria include ST elevation 100 microvolts
in the right precordial leads V4R through V6R.;
