Hi.
The EKG does report a probability of this being a heart attack (myocardial infarction), which is why I would recommend measuring the persons cardiac enzymes to confirm/rule out a heart attack. Treatment would have to be considered immediately, with the immediate imitation of medications like aspirin, blood pressure monitoring and management and statins.
Best wishes.
