 Left main occlusion : 
 
- Widespread horizontal STD
   most prominent in leads I, II and V4-6 ( 方向和 aVR 最相反的 )
 
- STE in aVR ≥ 1mm
 
- STE in aVR ≥ V1
 
 

* ST elevation in aVR :
    is not entirely specific to incomplete LMCA occlusion
    It may also be seen with :
  1. Proximal LAD occlusion
  2. Severe TVD
  3. Diffuse subendocardial ischemia
      –  Due to O2 supply/demand mismatch,
      –  Following resuscitation from cardiac arrest
  4. Aortic Stenosis, Pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection

- Patients with < 1mm STE in aVR
  may safely receive clopidogrel/prasugrel
  during the initial treatment of their ACS as they are unlikely to proceed to urgent CABG.
- Patients with ≥ 1 mm STE in aVR
  may potentially require early CABG;
  therefore these patients should ideally be discussed
  with the interventional cardiologist (± cardiac surgeon) before thienopyridines are given.
 
LMCA Mimics : Tachycardia-Related ST Depression
Widespread STD (+ reciprocal STE in aVR)
is a common finding in patients with SVT such as AVNRT or atrial flutter.
