Dear sir
Any ECG is best interpreted in view of clinical details and examination findings. Please tell why this ECG was done. If you have any symptoms like chest pain or breathlessness on exertion. If you have high blood pressure or diabetes.
If you can upload last ECG done before this one, it will be great.
Waiting
Sincerely
