Inferior infarct
My mother in law came home with her heart reading from the doctor today, it showed inferior infarct and left atrial enlargement. Tomorrow they are setting her up on a piece of equipment to wear all day. What I really want to know is what is a "inferior infarct" ?

Thank you

Specifically the rear of the heart, likely the rear of the left side as the left atrium is enlarged. I would try a search on "myocardial infarction" in google, it's simply the technical name for heart attack.
