Culprit Coronary Artery Algorithm
The Culprit Artery Algorithm developed by Professor Hein Wellens, is designed to
determine the size of the cardiac area at risk by localising the occlusion site in the
coronary artery and to provide clinical data to shorten the time interval between the
onset of chest pain and restoration of myocardial blood flow. The algorithm uses the
ST segment deviation of 12 ECG leads to indicate the site of occlusion in the culprit
artery.
