Inferolateral myocardial infarction and ventricular ectopics: Inferior wall infarction is manifested as Q, ST elevation and T wave inversion in inferior leads (II, III and aVF). Lateral wall involvement is seen as ST segment depressio in I and aVL plus ST segment depression and T wave inversion in [...]

IWMI – acute

QS complexes in leads II, III and aVF, with ST segment elevation and T wave inversion indicating a fresh inferior wall infarction. In addition there is ST elevation in V2 and V3. This could represent additional involvement in anterior wall. But there is notch at the J point [...]

AWMI and IWMI

Click on the image for a larger view
Q waves in II, III, and aVF without ST segment elevation or T wave inversion suggest an old inferior wall myocardial infarction (IWMI). Q waves in V2-V6, ST segment elevation in V1 to V5 and T wave inversion in I, aVL, V2 to V6 suggest a fresh [...]

Inferolateral ischemia

ST depression and T wave inversion in inferior leads (II, III, aVF) and lateral leads (I, V6) suggest inferolateral ischemia. The tall R waves in the inferior leads II and aVF may indicate left ventricular hypertrophy in a vertical heart position.

Complete heart block

Posted by: Johnson Francis on: 13 Jul, 2009

Complete heart block with narrow QRS subsidiary rhythm. Narrow QRS subsidiary rhythm occurs when the block is above the His bundle. In addition there are deep S waves in V3 and tall R waves in V5, with ST segment depression and T wave inversion in inferior and lateral leads, probably indicating left ventricular hypertrophy.
Leads I, [...]
