This single-center prospective study found that in 2,275 ECGs with a computerized interpretation of “normal” and “otherwise normal,” there was a negative predictive value (NPV) of 100% for STEMI, with no final diagnoses of ACS or STEMI, and none required cardiac catheterization that visit.

Hi! I've been practicing emergency medicine for over 20 years and started JournalFeed. I'm the Chief Spoon-Feeder, which means I either write or edit everything that's posted on the JournalFeed blog. But Nick totally runs the show with the podcast!
