ECG Evaluation in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome 361

Figure 9

SUMMARY:
From the ECG evaluation in patients with Acute Cor-
onary Syndrome.
1. One can diagnose whether it its due to STEMI or
NSTEMI
2. Plan the treatment strategy accordingly

3. Prognosticate based on localising the infarct re-
lated artery.
