Welcome back to ECG Pointers! This week we examine Torsade de Pointes in detail.

What happens with limb lead reversal on the ECG?

What do you need to consider when looking at an ECG in the setting of a TCA overdose? Better yet, what findings on an ECG suggest TCA ingestion? Learn more about TCAs on this edition of ECG Pointers.

Welcome to this week’s ECG Pointers, an emDOCs series designed to give you high yield tips about ECGs to keep your interpretation skills sharp. This week we discuss how to identify a posterior STEMI, which can commonly be mistaken as a NSTEMI.

Free Open Access Medical Education has produced a revolution in EM education, with hundreds of blogs and podcasts. FOAMed allows providers to rapidly stay abreast of the literature, while improving patient care. This is the beginning of a series evaluating FOAMed resources for learners, depending on subject matter. Today’s post will evaluate electrocardiogram (ECG) resources.

Treatment of STEMI is straightforward, but the treatment of NSTEMI is not as clear-cut! This post will review the risk stratification and treatment of patients with NSTEMI.

Welcome to the third blog post in a series on subtle ECG findings in ACS. This post about mimics: benign early repolarization (BER) and the anterior STEMI. Each of these can mimic the other. The problem is that one of these diagnoses is deadly and the other is a normal variant.
