First described in 1982
Subset of patients fared poorly with medical management of “impending myocardial infarction” (unstable angina)
At risk for extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction due to proximal LAD stenosis
Shared characteristic ECG changes
T wave abnormality associated with critical LAD stenosis
Findings can be transient (persists for hours after pain has resolved and then disappears)
