They started CPR. The patient was brought to the ED and had this ECG recorded: What do you think? Then assume there is ACS. This patient was witnessed by bystanders to collapse. EMS arrived and found him in Ventricular Fibrillation (VF). He was defibrillated into VT. After 1 mg of epinephrine they achieved ROSC.

This is diagnostic of ACS; it appears to be a reperfused acute inferior OMI. 3-vessel disease can make resuscitation very difficult, since CPR does not perfuse diseased vessels as well as one would like. In aVF it is "coved" (upwardly convex). There is ischemic ST depression in V4-V6. Figure-1: The initial ECG in today's case.

This is supplied via alternating current (AC), increasing the risk of titanic contraction of skeletal muscle, leading to kids holding on to the electrical power source. Prolonged CPR should be considered as outcomes are generally good, even if asystole is the presenting rhythm. AC and DC shocks may result in different injury patterns.
