Three- and four-variable formulas with recommended cutoffs have a reasonable sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy in differentiating subtle STEMI with BV-STE. Although both perform well, the four-variable formula has a higher sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy and should be preferred.
