Pathological Q:
- Wide (>/+ 1mm) & deep (>/= 2mm or >/= ¼ R)
- In 2 successive lead of the same wall
Poor progression of R: in anterolateral infarction
- R is NOT >S in V4
ST elevation:
- First mm after J point is elevated than isoelectric line
- Isoelectric lines (baseline) are P-R segment or T-P segment
- Considered elevated if:

If:
ST elevation (+/- ST depression in other walls) ST elevation Myocardial
Infarction (+/- reciprocal ST depression)
ST depression ONLY Myocardial ischemia

How to know
QRS in I + II + III < 15mm
QRS small and P & T waves large
NB Electrical alternans in pericardial effusion:
- LOW voltage +
V.2. Digitalis effect: in ALL LEADs
Digitalis effect: NB Normal QT = ½ RR
Short QT i.e. QT < ½ RR
Sagging ST depression:
- J point is isoelectric (unlike ischemia)
- ST depression + T inversion
- Fused ST + T
V.3. Hyperkalemia: in ALL LEADs
How to know:
Hyperacute T wave alone (tall, narrow & peaked)
V.4. Preexcitation syndrome: in ALL LEADs
