Which combination of symptoms and ECG findings is most indicative of myocardial infarction?
Chest pain with ST elevation
Classic acute myocardial infarction presents with retrosternal chest pain accompanied by ST-segment elevation in contiguous leads corresponding to the infarct territory — the diagnostic combination for a STEMI.
Fatigue with sinus bradycardia, dizziness with first-degree block or palpitations with a normal ECG are not specific for infarction and do not meet universal STEMI criteria.
Hence, Chest pain with ST elevation.
