ST elevation
Explanation:
St-Hebung is ST elevation (the peaks of an EKG are known as P, Q, R, S and T).

Kammercomplex is ventricular complex, (the stage of ventricular contraction). Broadened ventricular complex is a frequently-used term.

I work in the ER room of our local hospital, so EKG traces are common.
