does anyone know why My Kardia ECG has an inverted T wave ive taken it 4 times today and its been the same

As with A/fib no P wave but normal QRS then instead of the normal ST bump it dips all along the trace only a little dip but i dont know if its something to worry about !

If all the T waves are inverted either you are holding the device the wrong way around or you have the inverted control on.

Hi

I have access to ambulatory heart monitors through my work as a nurse and wore one during some of my AF episodes. I get flipped Ts as well. Asked my cardiologist when I saw him and he wasn't fussed. Said can't diagnose from a single lead. There are lots of reasons for it but I stopped worrying after that.

Flipped Ts are usually ectopics.

As always, depends how you feel! If no worse than usual, not to worry!

I always have inverted t waves and paramedics always say oh it's fine if it's not new. But if its new for you I would get it checked out. Just my opinion.
