• 42 year old female with degenerative disk in the lower back and gout in the knees. A1c was at 6.0, blood pressure was 230 / 180, EKG normal but still complains of pain in the left arm radiating from shoulder to hand. Suffers from numbness that only affects the skin. Ruled out heart attack with blood work.

• 42 y/o female suffered cardiac arrest. Image is during cardiac catheterization. What is the diagnosis?

• Update to previous EKG: Fig#1 - cath lab results Fig#2 - picture of non-perfusing LAD (blocked at 100%), Fig#3 - reperfusion rhythm! This patient was incredibly lucky that she came out of this alive. Initial EKG did show previous anterior MI (which was probably from the initial symptoms which appeared 4 days ago; good thing she took her ASA with initial symptoms, but should have come in right away. She truly is lucky to be alive.

• A 39-year-old woman presenting with sharp back pain between shoulder blades. She has a medical history of only hypertension and is on medication (lercanidipine). She was referred to the ER with clinical suspicion of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, she was later diagnosed with acute aortic dissection. Initial vital signs at the ER were stable besides the blood pressure (Rx arm 184/95 mmHg , Lx arm 188/75 mmHg). Electrocardiogram (EKG) showed NSR with nonspecific ST deviation. Laboratory findings were normal includes negative Troponin. CXR was normal. #aorticdissection #dissection

• A 52-year-old man presented with a 20-minute history of chest pain. Radiating to the left shoulder and neck, associated with dyspnea and diaphoresis. He had a history of hypertension, long-term smoking, and a sedentary lifestyle. On physical examination, bibasilar crackles were noted on lung auscultation. An electrocardiogram (ECG) was performed in the primary care setting, and the patient was promptly referred to the emergency department.

• A 28-year-old woman presented with a 3-day history of intense pruritus. She reported no recent travel or exposure to new environments. She cares for a small kennel with approximately eight dogs rescued from the streets. Physical examination revealed multiple small vesicles, some clustered and others scattered, predominantly involving the lumbar region and the left gluteal area.

• A 4-month-old male infant presented with skin lesions localized to the chin for the past 3 days. Physical examination revealed multiple small pustules with surrounding inflammatory signs on the chin, along with a few scattered papules on the chest.

• Patient in late teens presenting after a collapse. No chest pain, no previous cardiac history, no history of sudden death in family. Are there any features in this EKG that would warrant further work-up or is this just a pediatric EKG?
