In terms of ischemia, there is both a signal of subendocardial ischemia (STD max in V5-V6 with reciprocal STE in aVR) AND a signal of transmural infarction of the inferior wall with Q wave and STE in lead III with reciprocal STD in I and aVL. The rhythm is atrial fibrillation. The QRS complex is within normal limits. These include.
The ECG shows sinus tachycardia with RBBB and LAFB, without clear additional superimposed signs of ischemia. Hopefully a repeat echocardiogram will be performed outpatient.
