==ST | ==ST depression== | ||
The most important cause of ST depression is [[Ischemia]]. Other causes of ST depression are: | |||
* | *Reciprocal ST depression. If one leads whos ST elevation than usually the lead 'on the other site' shows ST depression. (this is mostly seen in [[ischemia]] as well. | ||
* | *Left [[ventricular hypertophy]] with "strain" | ||
*[[Miscellaneous# | *[[Miscellaneous#Digoxin|Digoxin]] effect | ||
*[[ | *[[Electrolyte_disturbances|Low potassium / low magnesium]] | ||
* | *Heart rate induced changes (post tachycardial) | ||
* | *[[Miscellaneous#ECG_changes_after_neurologic_events|During acute neurologic events:]. | ||
==T | ==T wave changes== | ||
The T wave is quite 'labile' and longs lists of possible causes of T wave changes exist. A changing T wave can be a sign that 'something' is abnormal, but it doesn't say much about the severity. | |||
A concise list of possible causes of T wave changes: | |||
