I recently had an ECG whilst in a&e. The results were left out on the table and I could easily read it- the things I remember off the top of my head were;
fusion complexes
left axis deviation
Inferior infact age undetermined
ST and T wave abnormalities consider lateral ischaemia
among other things but I can’t remember the rest haha
Nothing was mentioned to me about that so I’m assuming it means it was just a mistake from the machine? I googled what the different things mean and it’s coming up with all sorts of things from heart damage to other problems and I was just slightly worried the results were abnormal, but nothing was said so I’m assuming it’s just the case that the machine was being overly sensitive? I meant to ask the doctor when he came back in but I stupidly forgot and only remembered once I was home! I was going to ask at my next cardiologist appointment but that’s a while away unfortunately so I won’t know for sure for a while.
the staff were great at a&e so not for one second suggesting they missed something, but I just got myself worried when I saw those results. Does anyone know anything about it? Are those ecg machines bad for giving over sensitive results?
