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.

Anterior Myocardial Infarction
Shown below is an EKG demonstrating loss of R waves throughout the anterior wall (V1-V6). QS complexes in V3-V5. ST elevation in V1-V5 with terminal negative T waves.

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.

Inferior Myocardial Infarction
Shown below is an EKG demonstrating ST elevation in the precordial and limb leads depicting acute inferior MI.

Posterior Myocardial Infarction
Shown below is an EKG with ST elevation in II, III, aVF (in III > II), ST depression in I, aVL, V2. Tall R in V2, otherwise normal QRS morphology. The findings are suggestive of acute posteroinferior MI.
