The ECG ACS Ruler is a tool for acute coronary
syndrome (ACS) electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis and
recognition. It is an aid that:
-
Graphically defines ACS ECG findings for heat
injury, ischemia and infarction.
-
Gives directions how to measure ST deviation
with a transparent "window" grid has 2 transparent
grids calibrated to 25 mm/s paper, the "window"
grid is placed over the ECG tracing to measure the
ST segment at the appropriate time after the J point
(0.04 second for ACS and 0.08 second for stresses
testing) the interval grid is used to measure PR, QRS, and QT intervals.
-
Identifies infarct location with ECG graphics
for specific leads for anterior, inferior and
lateral infarct.
-
Lists normal values for PR, QRS, and QT
intervals.
-
Has ruler markings to estimate heart rate; inch
and cm.
-
Intended for out-of-hospital and critical care
departments (eg, ED healthcare providers, and other
STEMI systems of care providers).
