Findings in ecg explained to a cardiologist

Here is a detailed ECG interpretation for a cardiologist:

ECG Report - Safiya, Female, 53 Years | 31-05-2026, 06:48 PM

Machine-Reported Parameters

ParameterValue
Heart Rate92 bpm
PR interval120 ms
QRS duration84 ms
QTc (QT/QTc)418/428 ms
P/QRS/T axis19 / -16 / 51°
RV5/SV10.887 / 0.892 mV

Rhythm

  • Sinus rhythm at 92 bpm - normal rate, slightly toward the upper end of normal
  • P waves are upright in I and II, inverted in aVR - confirming normal sinus origin
  • Regular R-R intervals
  • PR interval 120 ms - normal (lower limit of normal; not pre-excitation as delta waves are absent)

Conduction

  • QRS duration 84 ms - narrow, no bundle branch block
  • PR 120 ms - short-normal; no overt Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern on visual inspection
  • No pathological Q waves identifiable

QT Interval

  • QTc 428 ms - within normal limits for a female (upper limit ~460 ms per AHA/ACC)
  • No significant QT prolongation

Axis

  • P axis: +19° - normal
  • QRS axis: -16° - borderline left axis deviation (LAD). Mild, within the -0° to -30° range; could represent normal variant or early LAFB. Warrants correlation with clinical context.
  • T axis: +51° - normal

ST Segments & T Waves

  • No obvious ST elevation or depression on visual review
  • T waves appear concordant with QRS in most leads
  • Machine diagnosis confirms "Normal ECG"

Voltage

  • RV5 0.887 mV, SV1 0.892 mV - RV5 + SV1 = ~1.78 mV, which is below the Sokolow-Lyon threshold of 3.5 mV - no voltage criteria for LVH

Notable Points for the Cardiologist

  1. Borderline QRS axis (-16°): Mild leftward shift. In isolation this is often a normal variant, but in a 53-year-old female consider correlation with history of hypertension, coronary artery disease, or early left anterior fascicular block (LAFB). LAFB classically shows axis between -45° and -90° with rS in II, III, aVF and qR in I, aVL - this tracing does not meet full LAFB criteria.
  2. QTc 428 ms: Normal but should be monitored if the patient is prescribed QT-prolonging drugs (antiarrhythmics, antihistamines, fluoroquinolones, antipsychotics), especially relevant in female sex (inherently longer QTc baseline).
  3. Rate 92 bpm: Mild sinus tachycardia territory. Evaluate for pain, anxiety, anemia, fever, thyroid disease, or dehydration as contributing factors.
  4. PR 120 ms: Low-normal; no delta waves, no short PR with accessory pathway physiology evident.
  5. Machine reads "Normal ECG" - the automated Glasgow algorithm (V28.6.0) confirms normality, consistent with visual interpretation.

Summary

This is a sinus rhythm ECG with no acute ischemic changes, no bundle branch block, no LVH by voltage, and a borderline mildly leftward QRS axis (-16°). The overall tracing is within normal limits for a 53-year-old female. Clinical correlation with symptoms, comorbidities, and medication history is recommended as always.
