His ECG is shown below. How does RCA occlusion fit with the ECG? The answer is that the ECG really shows right ventricular OMI. We've highlighted a considerable number of acute RV MI cases in Dr. Smith's ECG Blog ( See the October 7, 2019 and May 10, 2024 posts , to name just two ). There is non-obstructive disease here.

Suspected low voltage injuries (<1000v) should still be approached with an A-E assessment, but if 12 lead ECG and urinalysis are normal, it’s reasonable to discharge the patient. If the ECG is abnormal, the patient should be managed as if exposed to a high voltage (>1000v). Philadelphia, PA: Elsevier; 2023:chap 130.
