Is It Normal To Have Vent Rate 56 BPM In An EKG Test?
My 12 year old son has been having dizziness. His heart rate has been on the low side since he was young. He had obstructive sleep apnea until his adnoids and tonsils were removed at age 6. His lowest pulse while asleep was 47. He recently had an EKG. His results are below. Could you help me to know if these are normal? I would appreciate it greatly!Vent Rate 56 BPM,PR interval 136 ms,QRS duration 88 ms, QT/QTc 414/399 ms, P-R-T axes 56 93 74

Yes the rate is a bit on the lower side. Do not worry much.
