The ECG is a simple and easily reproducible test, with a non-ambiguous diagnostic ability. ST segment resolution is commonly used as a marker of successful reperfusion. It is an independent prognostic parameter of subsequent adverse events in STEMI patients. In many studies, the absence of ST segment resolution has Background: Up to 25% of patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have ST segment re-elevation after initial regression post-reperfusion and there are few data regarding its prognostic significance.
