Anytime you see the deep and flipped T waves in the precordial leads, especially v4,v5,v6you have to be concerned head bleed.

Tyson, remember that time you did a chest tube with me and you made a 14cm incision and I called you Tyson the Toledo butcher?

you told me you wanted to munch on a rib while i did the tedious task of suturing in the tube. your fault, not mine. I was just doing what my attending told me to do.
before i do a procedure on anyone now, i'm going to introduce myself as "tyson the toledo butcher." soothe some nerves. calm the patient right down.
