Background

  • AVR elevation is commonly thought of as a sign of Left Main Coronary Artery (LMCA) occlusion. However, STE 0.5mm or greater in lead aVR to be present in 78% of patients with and 14% of patients without LMCA stenosis.[1]
  • Use > 1mm and the clinical status of a patient if activating the cath lab based on aVR and concern for a STEMI
