Deep Dive: Anterior and Inferior STEMI 📢 In our last post, we covered the various types of STEMI (ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction). Now, let's focus on the first two types: Anterior STEMI and Inferior STEMI. ### Anterior STEMI ❤️ - ECG Findings: ST elevation in the anterior leads (V1 to V4). - Echocardiogram Findings: Hypokinesis, akinesis, reduced ejection fraction. - LAD Occlusion: Blockage in the left anterior descending artery. - Complications: Anterior wall rupture, cardiogenic shock. -

💥Exploring Lateral Wall STEMI and Right Ventricular (RV) STEMI 🫀 Lateral Wall STEMI ECG Findings: 📈 ST-segment elevation in leads I, aVL, V5-6 Echocardiogram: Reduced movement (hypokinesis or akinesis) in the lateral wall Complications: Acute Mitral Regurgitation and Papillary Muscle Dysfunction ⚠️ Angiography: Typically shows left circumflex artery occlusion Treatment: Address hypotension with agents like Dobutamine, Dopamine, and diuretics such as Isosorbide Dinitrate, Torsemide, Furosemide
