Don’t forget about tachycardia! Tachycardia is the most likely EKG finding in a patient with acute PE. This tachycardia is usually of the sinus variety, although some may present with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.[ditchdocem.com]

Electrocardiography and chest radiography should usually be incorporated into the diagnostic workup. The most frequent electrocardiographic abnormality is the inversion of T waves in the anterior leads, especially leads V1 to V4.[tmj.ro]
Rightaxisdeviation, dominant R wave in V1 and deep S wave in V6 suggest right ventricular hypertrophy due to cor pulmonale.[lifeinthefastlane.com]
