This course, “ECG Secrets of Myocardial Infarction,” provides a clear and practical understanding of how to recognize myocardial infarction through ECG interpretation. It focuses on identifying key ECG changes such as ST-segment elevation, T-wave inversion, and pathological Q waves in different types of MI. The course also explains how to localize infarct areas based on ECG leads and correlate them with coronary artery involvement. Through step-by-step visual learning from expert video lectures, it helps learners strengthen their diagnostic skills in emergency cardiac care
This course has been curated by Riphah International University faculty and staff using publicly available third-party content and Open Educational Resources (OER) for self-paced learning. Learners will engage with curated open-access materials to achieve the course learning outcomes. All third-party content is used under open-access or fair-use policies, while any original materials are developed specifically for this learning experience.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:
Relate the physiological changes in cardiac function, coronary blood flow, hemodynamic stability, and electrocardiographic (ECG) patterns that occur during and after myocardial infarction.
To be successful in this course, learners should have a basic understanding of human physiology, particularly cardiovascular physiology. This includes knowledge of cardiac function, coronary circulation, myocardial oxygen supply and demand, cellular metabolism in cardiac muscle, and basic electrophysiology. Familiarity with physiological terminology will also help in understanding the functional aspects of the heart more effectively.
This course is designed for medical, nursing, and allied health sciences students seeking a clear understanding of cardiovascular physiology. It is particularly beneficial for learners studying physiology, as well as interns and early healthcare trainees who want to strengthen their knowledge of cardiac function, coronary circulation, myocardial oxygen supply–demand balance, electrophysiology, and the physiological basis of cardiac responses to stress and ischemia
