8 ECG evidence of myocardial ischaemia in the distribution of a left circumflex artery is often overlooked. Isolated ST-segment depression 0.5 mm in leads V1 V3 may indicate left circumflex occlusion and can best be captured using posterior leads at the fifth intercostal space (V7 at the left posterior axillary line, V8 at the left mid-scapular line and V9 at the left paraspinal border).

46 ΤΟ ΗΚΓ ΣΤΗΝ ΙΣΧΑΙΜΙΑ ST depression can be either upsloping, downsloping, or horizontal (see diagram below). Horizontal or downsloping ST depression 0.5 mm at the J-point in 2 contiguous leads indicates myocardial ischaemia. ST depression 1 mm is more specific and conveys a worse prognosis. ST depression 2 mm in 3 leads is associated with a high probability of NSTEMI and predicts significant mortality (35% mortality at 30 days). Upsloping ST depression is non-specific for myocardial ischaemia.
