NCIt definition : An electrocardiographic finding in leads V1 or V2 of an initial R wave duration greater
than or equal to 40 ms, R wave greater than S wave, and upright T wave, which is suggestive
of myocardial infarction of the posterior wall of the left ventricle, and which is
new compared to prior ECGs. Evidence of inferior or lateral myocardial infarction
is usually also present. (CDISC);
