If this is ACS with Aslanger's pattern , the ST depression vector of subendocardial ischemia (due to simultaneous 3 vessel or left main ACS) is directed toward lead II (inferior and lateral). On epinephrine and norepinephrine drips." There is also STD in V2-V4 (but maximal in V5-V6).

The definition of massive hemoptysis is variable across publications with expectorated blood volumes ranging from 100 to 1,000 mL per 24 hours, as these volumes are difficult to estimate for any given patient. 2 Death from hemoptysis is akin to drowning, so airway considerations usually take precedence over hemodynamic considerations.
