On this episode Dave talks about how we have hit a wall when it comes to ECG interpretation and how we need to break through that wall by focusing on Morphology. 

Also In This Episode

• The Lateral Wall MI, which is notorious for producing really subtle changes but still associated with really bad things on the ECG.  
• Electrical Silence - Necrotic tissue & Collateral circulation, & electrode distance from the heart
• The further the electrode is from the heart the smaller the image on the ECG.
• ECG Tracing example
• Sometimes the reciprocal change is more evident than the primary change.
• High Lateral leads and low Lateral leads
• Combining cardiovascular anatomy and physiology with what we see on an ECG.
• ECG Tracing example
