Electrocardiogram
- Acute pericarditi can mimic myocardial infarction and present with chest pain and cardiac enzyme (biomarker) elevation.[1]
- IF pericarditis does not follow myocarditis and vice versa, the differentiation could be like following:[2][3][3]
- Morphology:
- Start of ST-elevation: in acute pericarditis begins at the J point(termination of depolarization junction)
- STEMI patients present a dome-shaped ST-elevation that can be more than5MM in height.
- Distribution:
- Pericarditis shows a non-specific ST-elevation pattern while STEMI shows specific changes based on the infarction location.
- Reciprocal changes:
- STEMI is often associated with reciprocal changes.
- Pericarditis reciprocal changes are just seen in leads aVR and V1.
- Concurrent ST and T wave changes:
- Pericarditis is not followed by ST-segment elevation and T wave.
- Those changes are pretty common in STEMI.
- PR segment:
- Pericarditis shows PR elevation in aVR with PR depression in other leads because of atrial injury.
- STEMI does not show such changes.
- Other signs:
- Hyperacute T waves
- New pathologic Q waves
- QT prolongation
- These signs are rarely seen in acute pericarditis
- Morphology:
- Shown below is an EKG with the presence of micro-voltage and electrical alternans suggesting pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade.
