I had an EKG in the Doctors office an here are my results, he has ordered a stress test because of my strong family history of CAD.

Rate: 64
PR: 150
Qt/Qtc: 406/413
QRSD: 98 -horizontal axis for age
P Axis: 28
QRS Axis: -5 Borderline
T Axis: -1

Don't understand the borderline on the Axis. What can cause this? This is the second EKG I have had with these findings.

The result is observing the QRS wave. That relates to the heart's left ventricle and QRS axis lies normally between -30 and +90 degrees. The left ventricle contractions are 64 bpm.

The results you have posted doesn't offer much information.

That is really all it says on there. I didn't understand it either.

My EKG report is more enlightening: The letters indicate what is being evaluated, the numbers indicate the condition. Your QT number is higher!?

QT 299...left atrial enlargement
QRSD 73...late transition
QT 299...left atrial enlargement
QTc 406...left ventricle enlargement
Normal P axis

This EKG was taken 2 1/2 years ago and I was admitted to ER for heart failure. Dimensions are normal at this time due to medication.
