Transtelephonic Ecg?


Question:
I have been issued a transtelephonic ecg for 2 weeks. And I was wondering when I sent the reading through the phone, the display on the machine shows a fluctuation of numbers. What are those numbers actually? Are they my bp or my hrart beat? thanks

Answers:
The numbers you actually saw in the fax paper, are the paramenters that are sent with the shape of waves, it does NOT tell whether an EKG transmitted outside the hospital or office is normal or abnormal,,
Figures attached are date, hour, duration of individual waves (P, Q R and S), however , they dont mean a thing without interpretation by a proper physician...Thats all
Nothing scary nor hidden behind those numbers I am sure---
A transtelephonic ECG is an ECG that is recorded outside the hospital and then sent to the hospital over the phone.

This is done using a special device called a transtelephonic monitor. These monitors are useful for children who might have a problem with the heart's electrical or conduction system. This type of problem is called an arrhythmia. Often, the only way to diagnose an arrhythmia is by recording an ECG at the time the problem or the symptom occurs. This is because most arrhythmias are intermittent and the ECG is often entirely normal except when the arrhythmia is active. For children who are known to have an arrhythmia, a transtelephonic monitor may also be useful. For these children, an ECG can be sent whenever there is concern that the child is in the arrhythmia. The monitor may also be used to assess the child's response to arrhythmia treatment.

In other words, the hospital is monitoring your heart activity to determine the real heart problem. Carefully follow your doctor's advice and you may take some complimentary food supplement to help improve your health by strengthening your body's natural immune system that would also take care of your health problems.
