Suggest Treatment For Severe Heart Attack

After a fairy severe heart attack, the EKG reveals normal sinus rhythm, but only for the P wave. The QRS and T waves are no longer in synchrony with the P wave. What part of the cardiac conduction system is damaged? What is pacing the ventricles? What arrhythmia does this patient have?
