Had a 24 hour ecg monitoring done and been checking the result and wondering what certain words mean.
Sinus rhythms seen throughout recording with sinus arrhythmic. Is this something to be worried about? Read that it could be a sign of sick sinus syndrome indicating the sinus node isn't functioning properly? A serious condition.
Other recordings were few episodes of sinus bradycardia. Longest 7 beats @ 19.06, slowest 38 bpm @20.43. Again, serious?
1 isolated ventricular ectopic. And a few isolated atrial ectopics.
Rate dependent event:- bradycardia 17. Total 1 min 40 sec 0.1%. Heart Beats 1 min avg, max hr 69bpm. Min hr 43bpm. Tachycardia 0.
Does any of these readings indicate heart trouble, especially heart failure?
