@munam87 means 2 positive(ELEVATION) pointing up......IN 2 LEADS .....2 (DEPRESSIONS) pointing down....IN 2 LEADS..... if you dont have "2 up and 2 down" you dont a STEMI going on....
Interventionists will tell you that treating a LBBB as a STEMI is not good care based on how seldom acute occlusions are found in LBBB. Unless there are clear indications for ischemia why would you fibrinolyse or PCI?
what did he mean by ekg criteria for a stemi being "2 up and 2 down"?

It's a great point. I have seen this twice, as acute occlusions presented as a LBBB.
Because time is critical, I would defer this to the Interventionists immediately.
This is based on the AHA criteria for STEMI.
Peace. I appreciate the conversation and feedback.
