The patient is a previously healthy 60-year old man who presented with palpitations and new-onset chest pain. He was on no meds — and had no prior history of heart disease. BP = 70 systolic at the time the 12-lead ECG in Figure-1 was obtained.

• What is the rhythm in Figure-1?
• Why so much ST segment depression?
• What are your diagnostic considerations?
• What would you do?
