The patient reported [insert symptoms, e.g., chest pain, shortness of breath] that started [insert duration] hours prior to presentation. The patient was evaluated in the emergency department and subsequently admitted to the cardiology service for further management.

Pathologic Q waves (typically ≥0.04 seconds in duration and ≥25% of the subsequent R wave amplitude) are present in the inferior leads (II, III, aVF). These Q waves meet criteria for prior transmural infarction. However, there are no accompanying ST-segment elevations, hyperacute T waves, or evolving T-wave inversions to suggest an acute or subacute event. The T waves in the inferior leads may be upright, flat, or minimally inverted, and the absence of serial tracings prevents precise dating.
