Question

A significant Q wave in leads II, III, and aVF is consistent with an old inferior MI. ST elevation or depression would indicate an acute episode, while reciprocal ST depression in the anterior leads may indicate a current or recent posterior MI. ST depression alone is non-specific and can occur in many conditions.
