Smartwatch ecg

[DawnH81]

Hi there everyone. I was diagnosed with mild LVSD after chemotherapy treatment and have been on bisoprolol and ramipril for a few years. I've recently discovered my watch can do ecg's , but my results do not look like my husbands and all the other 'normal' ecgs online. They have large waves. I will check with my doctor but just thought i would check if anyone else has this tiny qrs wave?

Thanks for your reply. I think I was just curious to be honest after seeing what they normally look like. I feel OK and have a phone appointment next week with my GP, so I'll mention it then but thanks for your thorough reply. 👍

Hi, I have an Apple Watch and use the ECG facility periodically and always same pattern normal. I had an angina attack recently and used it and the lines were very exaggerated and I was told it was a poor reading and I should keep my arm steady and I knew I’d used it correctly. Then a questionnaire popped up. Just going to check if I can send screen shot

Thankyou for imparting that information I find it very interesting

You rock.. Thanks for the explanation.. How can I learn more about how to read ECGs as I have a watch that generates them...
