Will my BP affect ECG

2021-12-08 11:14:52
Last week I had a pre employment medical check up. I have to go 12 hr fasting. I was afraid so my BP was high and heart rate too. BP was 169/95 and heart rate 104. Will it affect my ECG? Thanks for answering.

It will so fast heart rate in ecg- in form os sinus tachycardia. Blood pressure if transient then no effect on ecg. Check your blood pressure few more times you may be hypertensive.

ECG will show high heart rate. If your BP is just temporarily high it won't be reflected in ECG but I suggest you keep a regular watch on your BP to know if you really have high BP problem
