I'm a bit concerned about the results from my ECG. It shows an incomplete right bundle branch block (IRBBB) with a QRS duration of 114 ms. Should I be worried about this, and are there any additional tests I might need to consider?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Right Bundle Branch Block (IRBBB) or Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB) on an ECG can sometimes be a normal variant, especially in healthy individuals. However, it can also be associated with underlying heart conditions. Since your ECG shows IRBBB with a QRS duration of 114 ms, it is advisable to further evaluate this finding. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation, which may include additional tests such as an echocardiogram, stress test, or Holter monitor. These tests can help determine the underlying cause of the IRBBB and assess your cardiac health. It is important to monitor this condition and follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to ensure proper management.

Your Lipoprotein A level is 53mgdl, HS-CRP is 4.3mgL, Total Cholesterol is 222 mgdl, Triglycerides are 212 mgdl, VLDL Cholesterol is 42.48 mgdl, NON HDL Cholesterol is 172.2 mgdl, and TSH is 6.93. These values indicate a higher risk for cardiovascular issues. To manage your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiac events, I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. Additionally, for hypertension, you can take Amlodipine 5mg once daily. It is important to follow up with regular check-ups and lifestyle modifications to improve your overall cardiovascular health."

I want to understand if digital blood pressure machines are reliable. Lately, my readings are often above 14090, though sometimes they drop lower. Should I trust these numbers, or do you think I need to check in with a doctor?
digital blood pressure machines are generally accurate if used correctly. However, it is important to ensure that you are using the machine properly, such as positioning the cuff at heart level and following the instructions provided with the device. Variations in blood pressure readings can occur due to factors like stress, caffeine intake, or even the time of day. If you consistently see readings above 14090, it is advisable to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of high blood pressure, medications like Losartan 50mg or Amlodipine 5mg may be prescribed to help manage it."
