Check with cardiolog: The difference between the chart and the graph has no significance. You should let the ordering physician review the data to assist in your care. The type of tachycardia that is revealed is important as is the actual rate observed over 100. For instance a rate of 160 is more significant than 101 and atrial fibrillation more significant than sinus tachycardia. -see cardiologist
