TERMINAL QRS DISTORTION IS AN INDEPENDENT PREDICTOR OF LARGE AREA AT RISK AND INFARCT SIZE IN PATIENTS WITH ANTERIOR STEMI

Terminal QRS distortion is an electrocardiographic (ECG) expression of severe ischemia in the setting of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). We sought to evaluate the relationship between QRS distortion and area at risk (AAR), infarct size (IS), myocardial salvage and left
