Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking to HCM!

Supraventricular ectopic activity mean that you have premature complexes of supraventricular origin.

There have been evidenced 26 supraventricular premature complex of them 2 were in a row (i.e atrial couplete) and others were ectopic beats.

The longest pause evidenced (i.e R-R interval) was 1.2 s which is normal.

For me this is a holter monitoring within the normal range. Nothing to worry about.

Hope this was of help!
