EKG Examples
Shown below is an EKG demonstrating the evolution of an infarct on the EKG. ST elevation, Q wave formation, T wave inversion, normalization with a persistent Q wave suggest STEMI.

Anterolateral Myocardial Infarction
Shown below is an EKG demonstrating sinus rhythm. The remarkable feature is the poor R wave progression in the V1 and V2 leads and the ST elevation and T wave changes in leads V1 to V4 and I and aVL. The cardiogram suggests an anterior/ lateral MI possibly acute. There is also terminal P wave negativity in V1 suggesting a left atrial abnormality.
