It was a huge pleasure to sit down with Steve Smith, a name synonymous with ECG expertise. Steve, renowned worldwide for his influential ECG blog, has been a pivotal figure in advancing our understanding of ECGs. Many of us have honed our ECG skills thanks to Steve’s insights. I had the opportunity to meet Steve about a decade ago at one of the SMACC conferences. Today, we delve into the fascinating world of occlusive myocardial infarction (OMI) and its comparison to STEMI (ST-elevation myocardial infarction), and explore the promising future of artificial intelligence in ECG interpretation.
In this special episode of the St Emlyn's podcast, we explore the concept of occlusive myocardial infarction (OMI) and its distinctions from ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Dr. Smith discusses his extensive work and experience in emergency medicine, spanning over three decades, and his development of Dr. Smith's ECG blog. The conversation dives into the limitations of traditional STEMI criteria and the benefits of adopting the OMI paradigm. Additionally, they discuss the revolutionary potential of artificial intelligence in ECG interpretation, particularly through the Queen of Hearts program developed in collaboration with Powerful Medical. Dr. Smith shares compelling studies and real-world applications demonstrating the efficacy of AI in diagnosing ECGs, ultimately offering a promising future for enhanced patient outcomes.
