P-R-T readings

My husband had a ekg done and the P R T numbers 75 118 71. He was admitted to the hospital. We heard nothing then the Dr come in and ask if his heart stops do he want to be full code or DNR. Should I be concerned?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Sorry for the delay in response. How is your husband doing?  Normal range for the P wave vector is between 0 and +75 degrees, for the QRS between -30 and +105 and for the T wave between -30 and +90.  What was your follow up with your husband's doctors?  Please update us.
