The rhythm is rapid AFib. Otherwise ( as noted by Drs.

With the history of Afib, CTA abdomen was ordered to r/o mesenteric ischemia vs ischemic colitis vs small bowel obstruction. Widespread ST-depression with reciprocal aVR ST-elevation can be cause by: Heart rate related: tachyarrhythmia (e.g., See this case: what do you think the echocardiogram shows in this case?
