Dr. Mattu reminds us that one ECG begats another.  If something doesn't look or feel right, repeat the ECG.  He sites a paper documenting 11% MI's not seen on initial ECG in a study of over 41K pt's! (Check out link below)

Additional pearl:
aVL, V2 depression can be reciprocal changes for inferior MI.
