1
In this video, we'll take a look at ST segment changes.
2
How do we identify and measure ST elevation and depression?
3
And what does it mean for our patient?
4
The ST segment is the space between the QRS and the T wave.
5
It should be resting comfortably on the baseline, but in some strips you may see it above or below the baseline.
6
When you're checking location of the ST segment, sometimes it seems a little variable.
7
But what we're basing this measurement on is where the J -point is.
8
That's the junction between the QRS and the ST segment.
9
It's where we stopped measuring the QRS complex.
10
So start by identifying where the baseline is.
11
Where does your PR segment rest?
12
And where does your diastolic phase between the T -wave and the P -wave come to rest?
13
That's your baseline.
14
Now, is the J -point on, below, or above the baseline.
15
The threshold for this is one millimeter or more elevated or depressed,
16
so one small box above or below the baseline is considered significant and warrants noting on the interpretation.
17
Take your calipers.
18
Place one point on the baseline and one point on the J -point.
19
You're measuring vertically for this, so take that measurement to a nice clear area where you can count the small boxes.
20
Vertically, each box represents one millimeter, so count the boxes and note ST elevation or depression
21
if you have at least one full small box or one millimeter of change from the baseline.
22
For this strip we have elevation.
23
The J point is three small boxes above the baseline.
24
So it's a three millimeter ST elevation.
25
For this strip we have depression.
26
The J point is two small boxes below the baseline.
27
So it's a two millimeter ST depression.
28
A lot of elevation and depression is chronic, and is indicative of some level of ischemic damage.
29
You can get a lot more specific with that
30
if you do a 12 -lead and look at how the ST changes appear on a number of different leads,
31
but on a 3 and 5 -lead monitor, we'll just say they indicate ischemia.
32
There are a couple of findings that are a bit more concerning, though.
33
If you see acute elevation, meaning it wasn't there before, and after the J -point you see a convex curve,
34
meaning after the j -point the tracing goes back up before returning to the baseline.
35
It ends up taking on a shape known commonly as a tombstone.
36
When you see tombstones, think heart attack.
37
The tombstone shape won't always show in every lead.
38
Depending on where the infarct is, the tombstone will show itself in the associated leads, and others may show nothing.
39
Here's an example of a 12 -lead EKG.
40
If we were looking at lead 2, we would have seen a tombstone shape appear for our patient.
41
But if we were looking at lead 1, it's only showing a minor depression.
42
Some other leads, like 3 or AVF, are showing the tombstone, but the rest are showing depression or sometimes no change at all.
43
This EKG may be indicative of an inferior wall MI,
44
which can be figured out based on which leads are showing the elevation changes and which are not.
45
That being Having said, we'll only be viewing leads 1, 2, 3, AVR, AVL, AVF and V1 on our 5 -lead setup.
46
And primarily, we'll be looking at lead 2.
47
So we can't see every infarct with a 5 -lead setup.
48
But when you do see it, check your patient for symptoms and activate the emergency response.
49
If the patient is showing symptoms, even if the 5 -lead isn't showing any elevation, activate the emergency response.
50
The 12 -lead may reveal what we couldn't see with the 5.
51
Another acute change you may see is when after the J -point, the ST segment curves down into a concave curve.
52
It can be indicative of pericarditis.
53
This ST change is usually widespread across many leads.
54
Pericarditis is inflammation of the pericardial sac surrounding the heart.
55
Symptoms include sharp chest pains, much like infarction.
56
So again, if you see this ST change on your strip, check your patient for symptoms and activate the emergency response.

需要注意的发音
说话人用了 12 次缩略和弱读形式,例如 we'll, you're, can't。请按听到的简短形式来说。
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: elevation /ˌɛlɪˈveɪʃn̩/, measurement /ˈmɛʒ.ə.mənt/, sharp /ʃɑɹp/, associate /əˈsoʊʃi.ət/, interpretation /ɪnˌtɜːpɹəˈteɪʃən/
- 长单词——注意重音位置: indicative /ɪnˈdɪk.ə.tɪv/, primarily /ˈpɹaɪ.mə.ɹə.li/, associate /əˈsoʊʃi.ət/, interpretation /ɪnˌtɜːpɹəˈteɪʃən/, inferior /ɪnˈfɪɹ.i.ɚ/
中文母语者容易读错的音:
- /v/ — 不要读成 /w/,上齿轻触下唇: elevation /ˌɛlɪˈveɪʃn̩/, curve /kɚv/, activate /ˈæktɪˌveɪt/, indicative /ɪnˈdɪk.ə.tɪv/, reveal /ɹɪˈviːl/
- 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚,后面不要加元音: segment /ˈsɛɡmɛnt/, strip /ˈstɹɪp/, curve /kɚv/, activate /ˈæktɪˌveɪt/, indicative /ɪnˈdɪk.ə.tɪv/
- /r/ 和 /l/ 的区别: primarily /ˈpɹaɪ.mə.ɹə.li/, reveal /ɹɪˈviːl/, variable [ˈvæɹ.i.ə.bl̩], threshold /ˈθɹɛʃ(h)oʊld/
如何用这段视频练习

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
