Hi
You have specifically asked about ECG report of your father which is reported as having Left Ventricle Hypertrophy which means thickening of muscle of main chamber of heart. It is not un common in patients with High BP. But it also reflects that His BP is not well controlled. So that needs reviewing. you have not provided me his recent BP reading so I can't comment on that.
