Holter monitor: ST Segment

2023-05-04 18:00:31
Can someone tell me what is happening in this report? Why is it so unreadable? And is it a cause of concern? I was sleeping around that time, might have been coughing as well. Could that have caused this distortion in V2 Lead. Can Holter monitor results be impacted by such activities or is it something else happening?
