suspect ECG

Just got a P-R-T axis result on my ECG of "74 -  negative (-) 89 - 41".  What the heck does that mean?

Hello,

The rhythm of your heart can be converted into waves.  The waves or graph (whatever you want to call it) refers to the heart contraction and relaxation patters from which they drive these values (PRT axis) which involves some mathematical calculations.  The normal range for these three values is between (-) 30 to (+) 90.  Also, careful examination of your wave can reveal the health of your heart, which your physician will be better able to explain you.
