-# intermediate heart axis
-# tall p wave in II consistent with right atrial dilatation. (the sawtooth-basline between the 2nd and 3rd complex in AVR is probably a motion artefact). PTA depression in II
-# Loss of R waves throughout the anterior wall (V1-V6). QS complexes in V3-V5.
-# ST elevation in V1-V5 with terminal negative T waves
-* Conclusion: '''Large anterior MI due to LAD occlusion.'''
-Characteristics that suggest a large infarct in this case are:
-* Loss of R waves throughout the anterior wall (V1-V6). QS complexes in V3-V5.
-* Left and right sided decompensation, resulting in right atrial dilatation and ischemia
-* Tachycardia
