Reflection of epicardial U-wave changes in surface inferior electrocardiograms during inferoposterior or anterior wall myocardial ischemia.
The surface inferior electrocardiogram (ECG) has limited value for detecting frequently occurring epicardial U-wave changes over the ischemic inferoposterior wall. Reciprocal U-wave changes could occur in this ECG during anterior wall myocardial ischemia.
