Right Ventricle MI
| This is part of: Myocardial Infarction |
Can be seen after a proximal occlusion of the RCA.
- Criteria for Right Ventricular MI [1]
- ST-elevation >1 mm in lead V4 right
- ST elevation in lead V1
V4 right is located at the same place as lead V4, but is placed on the right side of the patient. This means it is placed under the right nipple instead of the left. This increases the sensitivity of detecting right ventricle infarcts.
