As shown in the examples below, myocardial infarction diagnosis in right bundle branch block is not very different from normal MI diagnosis. As repolarisation in leads V1-V3 is often abnormal in RBBB, these leads cannot always be used for the diagnosis of ischemia.
Examples
-
Patient with RBBB and inferior MI. Notice left axis deviation.
-
Lead V4R in the same patient with RBBB and inferior MI clearly shows ST elevation.
-
The same patient before acut MI developed. Horizontal axis.
