ECG on Apple watch

[Amy2805]

Hi Everyone,

So I’ve got this Apple Watch that my cardiologist told me was a good buy for the ECGs they do. What’s everyone’s thoughts on this one I picked up?

It was 203bpm and it even shows my heart correcting itself towards to end with a long pause. I’m hoping it’s my SVT and not AF anyone any ideas?

Thanks

Looks too regular to be AF. But the image is too small on my phone to have a proper look

I would say the same as baba. Looks too regular for AF.

A pity that it can't show AF as you are over 120bpm.....a big drawback for the device surely!

My guess would be flutter. I’ve had many similar. But do send it to your cardiologist. Too fast to ignore.

I've found my apple watch ECG really useful with my Cardiologist ! Just email it across and let them review it ! Hope you are feeling better today !

Does look like Atrial Flutter, nasty rate and I hope you are already on medication?? Do let us know what the consultant says!!

Do any of you have an icd and an Apple watch? I want one but am unsure about interference

Hi everyone thanks for all your advice really appreciate it. I saw my consultant yesterday and he looked at the ECG he said it was the regular fast rhythm that he couldn’t trigger on the last EP study. He wanted to maybe try again but with me just having a baby I have opted for medication and keep tweaking the bisprolol until I get the right dose to control my palpitations.

Merry Christmas everyone here’s one to no palms hopefully!

Hi Amy, looks to me like SVT, I’ve experienced a bpm of 236 which was awful, but after my ablation I generally get brief runs like yours albeit in the 130’s which self terminate after a minute or less. Hoping you have a healthy and happy Xmas!
