Poor R-wave progression and myocardial infarct size after anterior myocardial infarction in the coronary intervention era

Background: Regeneration of R-wave or disappearance of Q-wave sometimes occurs after myocardial infarction (MI) especially in the coronary intervention era. We assessed the impact of poor R-wave progression (PRWP) or residual R-wave in precordial leads on myocardial infarct size in patients with pri...
