  • Title: Right sided chest lead electrocardiographic abnormalities in acute pulmonary embolism.
    Author: Chia BL, Tan HC, Lim YT.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 1997 Aug 29; 61(1):43-6. PubMed ID: 9292331.
    Abstract:
    Twelve lead electrocardiograms together with right-sided chest leads V4R, V5R and V6R were recorded in four patients with acute pulmonary embolism. All four patients showed ST segment elevation and a qs or qr pattern (with prominent q waves) in one to three of the leads V4R, V5R and V6R. These abnormalities were absent in the repeat electrocardiograms which were recorded after the acute illness.
