ECG help
A nursing student did an ECG in me. Can you tell me what the results mean or if they are normal?
ANALYSIS RESULT
NORMAL SINUS RHYTHM
Low Voltage (chest leads)
Normal axis
MI may be incorrect due to low voltage
MODERATELY ABNORMAL ECG
(UNCONFIRMED REPORT)

Lots of 'normal' there. So that's good. What does low voltage on ECG mean?
Low voltage on the electrocardiogram is a marker of disease severity and a risk factor for adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure due to systolic dysfunction. It sounds like you need another ECG. That it was triggered as abnormal but so many other normal findings that it is being questioned. Has a doctor talked to you yet about the results? You have every right and SHOULD inquire. Have you been told previously that you had an MI (heart attack)?
