That looks like a ventricular ectopic beat - a PVC. Unpleasant blighters but my EP told me they are not significant when occurring singly and occasionally.

Mmmm it looks like mine feels. I must ask for a printout. And yes, unpleasant indeed.

I agree- Goldfish is good at ECG interpretation- think he will agree too !!

Hi Bushy....I'm no medic, but I wonder if you could have burped and hiccupped at the same time!! I think it might be an ectopic, but the rate and that word "normal" look good!!.....

All the best, John

Looks like an early beat to me. I get them, a&e diagnosed them. The heart does it's beat straight have a normal beat, then feels like it misses one as it waits for the next normal beat. Not dangerous but I find they are tiring if you get them for hours.
