Terminal QRS Distortion in Inferior Acute Myocardial Infarction Predicts High-degree Atrioventricular Block
Background.ST elevation in acute myocardial infarction can predict the size of infarction, response to reperfusion therapy, and prognosis.Birnbaum et al.showed that early QRS distortion is a reliable prediction of the devel-opment of advanced AV block among patients receiving thrombolytic therapy for inferior wall acute myocardial infarction.Distor
