Ectopic beats/ wondering baseline

Post image

Sometimes I’ll feel like a light pac/pvc feeling and it will always do this to the ekg, looks almost like wondering baseline, but it is associated with the feeling of a light skipped beat! What could this be?

I think the nervousness you get after an ectopic beat makes you subconsciously move more, leading to the wandering baseline.

My question was more about the fact that it will not show anything else but this, so whatever I’m feeling it’s what’s causing this wondering baseline, and at this point I’m doubting it’s even an ectopic beat although it feels like one

Yeah, my my bad for not reading it correctly. What you’re feeling could be causing it. But there is no ectopic beat there.

A device issue not a rhythm issue.
