Remember this is a preinfarction stage of


  t Wellen’s Type 1, there are deep T-wave                                coronary artery disease, also referred to as
  inversions in V2 and V3. Now even if you didn’t                         “LAD coronary T-wave syndrome.”

  know this was called “Wellen’s Sign,” you                               What are the criteria, you ask?

  would not send this patient home. They are                              1) History of angina + T wave inversion or
  coming in for admission, getting ASA,                                   biphasic t waves in V2–V4

  anticoagulation and cardiology consultation.                            2) Normal or minimally elevated cardiac
