No. While the ST segments do appear to be elevated in leads II, III and avF, to technically meet Scarbossa criteria, there must be ST segment elevation of 5 mm or more that is discordant with the QRS complex. Of note, this ECG criteria has the weakest predictive value of all three Sgarbossa criteria.
The other Sgarbossa criteria - which have greater predictive values for detecting acute MI in the presence of LBBB - are:
- ST segment elevation of 1 mm or more that is in the same direction as the QRS complex in any lead
- ST segment depression of 1 mm or more in any lead from V1 to V3
