This just means that there were not any Q waves seen on the EKG. By my understanding, an MI can be diagnosed by either Q-waves seen on the EKG or by cardiac enzymes. In this case, the patient's cardiac enzymes were elevated and there were probably ST-T wave changes, but there were no Q-waves seen. Hope this helps some. Sorry, my brain is getting fuzzy at this time of night and I can't give a better explanation. Maybe one of the day folks will give you more info on this, Margaret >> Thank you Margaret! I thought that is what he was saying, but I have never heard that before. This is the doc I am doing for the other MT that normally does him, but he is clear as a bell and his voice is so nice to listen to compared to what I am used to......LOL Holly ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2001 Report Share Posted June 20, 2001 Holly, Since he is so clear and she doesn't seem to want to do him, you might consider asking to trade with her and giving her your worst dictator, LOL. She just might learn and decide she wanted to work and take back this doc.
