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

Shown below is an EKG demonstrating [[sinus rhythm]]. The [[QRS]] shows [[Q wave]]s in the inferior leads which are wide (>30ms) and about 25% of the QRS height in [[aVF]]. There is also slight [[ST elevation]] in the [[inferior]] leads and [[T wave inversion]]. The EKG suggests an inferior wall infarction, probably old. (the best way to determine "old" is to see a previous cardiogram).

There is also slight [[ST elevation]] in leads [[Electrocardiogram#Limb|I]],[[Electrocardiogram#Augmented lead|aVL]] , and [[T wave inversion]] in the lateral leads. The EKG is consistent with a lateral wall myocardial infarction.
