* Following the 7+2 steps:
==Answer==
**Rhythm
* The first rhythm strip shows sinusrhythm with a severely prolonged QT interval. In total four ventricular premature beats are present on this strip. All fall within the T wave of the previous sinus beat.
***'''The ECG shows a regular rhythm. Every P wave is followed by a QRS complex. P waves are positive in I and AVF. Normal sinus rhythm'''
* The second strip shows [[Torsade de Pointes]] with a typical short (not shown) - long - short initial sequence.
**Heart rate
* The
***'''40 bpm'''
**Conduction (PQ,QRS,QT)
***'''PQ: 160ms QRS: 90ms QT: 420ms QTc: 360ms
**Heartaxis
***'''QRS positive in I and AVF: normal heart axis'''
**P wave morphology
***'''Normal P wave morphology'''
**QRS morphology
***'''Pathologic Q waves in III and AVF. QS in V1 and V2. No ST elevation in V3 (=V4R). '''
**ST morphology
***'''ST elevation in II, III, AVF and V5. ST depression in I, AVL.'''
**Compare with the old ECG (not available, so skip this step)
**Conclusion?
 
 
'''sinusbradycardia with inferior-lateral myocardial infarction.'''
