About Us

About DR. USMAN'S CARDIOLOGY NOTES:

Proficiency in ECG, Echocardiography, Cath & other Cardiology data is an essential skill for medical students, housestaff, resdidents, Cardiology fellows and clinicians. However, medical school and postgraduate resources to develop and upgrade the necessary high level of  cardiology data literacy are severely limited. Further, current textbook and classroom instructional materials do not adequately integrate data interpretation into specific contexts where waveform findings must be correlated with other clinical data. We have begun to address the limitations in traditional approaches to data pedagogy by creating the infrastructure for a unique web-based tutorial.
This blog is created to collect Cardiology Notes & Clinical Cases for students and teachers to help them better understand Cardiology and its application to patients. It includes ECG, Echocardiography, Cath, Cardiac CT, Cardiac MR, Nuclear Cardiology and other data related to Cardiology field. Our moto is: "Healthcare is stressful!!! Learning cardiology shouldn't be !!!"

STEMI ECG Criteria and Universal Definition of MI

  STEMI ECG Criteria and the Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction: A Complete Guide for Clinicians Early and accurate diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains the cornerstone of reducing morbidity and mortality in patients presenting with chest pain. Among all forms of acute coronary syndromes (ACS), ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) represents the most time-sensitive emergency, requiring immediate reperfusion therapy. This article provides a clinically relevant summary of the STEMI ECG criteria and the Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction (UDMI), based on the latest consensus guidelines from the ESC, ACC, AHA, and WHF. --- 1. Understanding STEMI: Why Accurate ECG Interpretation Matters A 12-lead ECG remains the first and most critical diagnostic test when evaluating suspected myocardial infarction. STEMI is identified when there is evidence of acute coronary artery occlusion, producing transmural ischemia and characteristic ST-segment eleva...

However, this rule might be somewhat later than currently used in a real-world practical setting.
