There is low voltage in the precordium which always makes reading ischemia harder. In ACS, chest pain is the warning sign of ongoing ischemia. Smith : As Willy says, and as we've said many times before, morphine will resolve pain without resolving ischemia. ECG 1 What do you think? To me, this ECG is not diagnostic.

Influenza-like illness can also trigger plaque rupture. McLaren : The inferior T wave inversion suggests either reperfusion (if resolved symptoms) or subacute refractory ischemia and from the previous description of pain refractory to nitro it is likely the latter.

Time 7 hours lead reversal There is limb lead reversal (QRS in I and aVL are now inverted), but nevertheless one can see that the ischemia appears to have resolved. This was attributed to a "Type 2 MI", which is acute MI that is not due to ruptured plaque, but rather due to "supply demand oxygen mismatch". Next day, with K = 4.6
