The ECG is an essential part of the initial evaluation of patients who have chest pain, especially in the immediate decision-making process in patients who have ST-elevation myocardial infarction. This article reviews and summarizes the current information that can be obtained from the admission ECG in patients who have ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction, with an emphasis on: (1) prediction of final infarct size, (2) estimation of prognosis, and (3) the correlations between various ECG patterns and the localization of the infarct and the underlying coronary anatomy.
