ECG Results

[emmasgram612]

I received a copy of my ECG but was not called back to see the physician. I wondered whether there was a problem when it states its an abnormal ECG.
Normal Sinus rhythm but incomplete right bundle branch block.
Rate 64
PR 160
QRSD 104
QT 385
QTc397
Axis
P 64
QRS 56
T 38

Normally an electrical impulse is generated with the sinus node (normal pacemaker) in the right atrium and the EKG indicates your sinus rhythm is normal.  The impulse transmission is normally down a pathway of the wall (septum) that separates the left and right side of the heart termed right bundle branch for the pathways to right side and the left bundle branch for the left side..

Right bundle branch block occurs when transmission of the electrical impulse is delayed or not conducted along the right bundle branch. As a result the right ventricle depolarizes (contracts) by means of cell-to-cell conduction that spreads from the interventricular septum and left ventricle to the right ventricle delaying contraction. It is relatively common  where electrical signals reach different parts of your heart muscle at slightly different times.  Both left and right ventricles usually contract at the same time, but there is a fraction of a second difference with a RBBB, but of no medical significance.

Hope this helps and thanks for sharing.  If  you have any further questions or comments you are welcome to respond.  Take care,

Ken
