Brief Answer:
This ECG is not a hinderance to your surgery.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

I understand your query and concern.

These changes seem to be borderline in nature.

Early transition can be a normal variation.
PR interval is within the normal limits.

Regarding abnormal R wave progression and elevated ST segment, these warrant further workup considering your age.

You need further evaluation in the form of Cardiac echo 2 dimensional screening mode.

The above ECG changes per se are not a hinderance to your appendicitis surgery.

You can get along with your surgery after final verdict to be given by your anaesthetist.


Thank you
