Hi
palpitation mainly caused by either extra beat ( ectopic beat), or tachycardia and heart moniter is basic test to evaluate palpitation
your report shows no rare ectopy which is normal finding and shows no tachycardia
so nothing to worry about
regarding your palpitation it can be caused by anxiety also, anaemia which is common in female
relax your self and get your Hb check
take care
