I will leave more detailed rhythm discussion to the illustrious Dr. Ken Grauer below, but this use of calipers shows that the rhythm interpretation is: Sinus bradycardia with a competing (most likely junctional) rhythm. The fact that R waves 2 through 6 are junctional does make ischemia more difficult to interpret -- but not impossible.

For coronary anatomy, see here: [link] This is the post intervention ECG: All ST Elevation is gone (more proof that it was all a result of ischemia) Formal Echo: Normal estimated left ventricular ejection fraction - 55%. This is sinus bradycardia. More likely, these T waves probably reflect ischemia of uncertain age.

Triage physician interpretation: -sinus bradycardia -lateral ST depressions While there are lateral ST depressions (V5, V6) the deepest ST depressions are in V4. Ischemic ST-Segment Depression Maximal in V1-V4 (Versus V5-V6) of Any Amplitude Is Specific for Occlusion Myocardial Infarction (Versus Nonocclusive Ischemia). 121.022866.
