The outcome of patients who fail to reperfuse with thrombolytic therapy or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) may be improved with additional pharmacologic and mechanical interventions such as rescue PCI or intravenous glycoprotein IIb/IIIa infusion. The standard 12-lead ECG is the most commonly available and suitable tool for routine bedside evaluation of the success of reperfusion therapy for STEMI. This article reviews and discusses the current data on the four ECG markers for prediction of the perfusion status of the ischemic myocardium: ST-segment deviation, T-wave configuration, QRS changes, and reperfusion arrhythmias.
