Electrocardiogram monitoring showing acute STEMI in inferior territory. ECG upon ED admission shows sinus rhythm, ST segment depression in V3-V4, and flat T waves in D1, aVL, V5-V6

Figure 1B

Electrocardiogram monitoring showing acute STEMI in inferior territory. ECG 26 hours after admission showed important ST segment elevation in leads DII, DIII, aVF, with S-T segment depression in aVL, flat T waves in DI, and V6, and sinus tachycardia
