An ST elevation is considered significant if the vertical distance inside the ECG trace and the baseline at a point 0.04 seconds after the J-point is at least 0.1 mV (usually representing 1 mm or 1 small square) in a limb lead or 0.2 mV (2 mm or 2 small squares) in a precordial lead. [2]
ST elevation ≥1 mm in a lead with a positive QRS complex (i.e.: concordance) - 5 points; concordant ST depression ≥1 mm in lead V1, V2, or V3 - 3 points; ST elevation ≥5 mm in a lead with a negative (discordant) QRS complex - 2 points; ≥3 points = 90% specificity of STEMI (sensitivity of 36%) [2]
The 2018 European Society of Cardiology/American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association/World Health Federation Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction for the ECG diagnosis of the ST segment elevation type of acute myocardial infarction require new ST elevation at J point of at least 1mm (0.1 mV) in two contiguous leads with the cut-points: ≥1 mm in all leads ...

ST elevation may indicate transmural myocardial infarction. An elevation of >1mm and longer than 80 milliseconds following the J-point . This measure has a false positive rate of 15-20% (which is slightly higher in women than men) and a false negative rate of 20–30%.
Bill McCartney, the Hall of Fame college football coach who led the Colorado Buffaloes to their only national championship title in 1990, has died. He was 84. McCartney, better known to fans as ...
It is diagnosed based on an elevated J-point / ST elevation with an end-QRS notch or end-QRS slur and where the ST segment concave up. It is believed to be a normal variant. [2] Benign early repolarization that occurs as some patterns is associated with ventricular fibrillation. The association, revealed by research performed in the late 2000s ...
