A member asked:
What is a wandering baseline on an ekg?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ECG: wandering baseline means some electrical recording problem and does not relate to the patient's heart. Usually it is caused by electrode problems or sometimes problems in the ecg machine. It has no evil implications for the patient.
