BACKGROUND Recent reports critical of the performance of heart rate-adjusted indexes of ST depression during exercise electrocardiography have used J-point rather than ST segment measurements. However, no standard exists for the optimal time after the J-point at which to measure ST segment deviation.
In these cases, while cell death occurs, some of the heart muscle supplied by the artery survives. In these âpartialâ heart attacks, the ST segment on the ECG does not become elevated. So this type of ACS is referred to as a ânon-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction,â or NSTEMI.
