Here's a complete guide to 10 common heart diseases with ECG changes and real ECG images from peer-reviewed medical literature:

The guide covers:
  1. STEMI — Convex ST elevation, hyperacute T waves, Q waves, reciprocal changes (anterior + inferior ECG images shown)
  2. Atrial Fibrillation — Absent P waves, irregularly irregular rhythm, fibrillatory baseline
  3. Complete AV Heart Block — P-QRS dissociation, slow escape rhythm, wide QRS
  4. Ventricular Tachycardia — Wide complex tachycardia, AV dissociation, concordance
  5. LVH / Hypertensive Heart Disease — Sokolow-Lyon voltage criteria, lateral strain pattern
  6. Pulmonary Embolism — S1Q3T3, sinus tachycardia, right ventricular strain (two ECG examples)
  7. WPW Syndrome — Short PR, delta wave, widened QRS, secondary ST-T changes
  8. Acute Pericarditis — Diffuse concave ST elevation, PR depression (differentiating from STEMI)
  9. Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy — Deep Q waves (septal), giant T-wave inversions in apical variant
  10. Long QT Syndrome — Prolonged QTc, T alternans, Torsades de Pointes initiation
Each entry includes pathophysiology, specific ECG criteria, and authentic clinical ECG images with annotated descriptions. The summary table at the end provides a rapid reference for the key differentiating ECG feature of each disease.
