Hi Fitbit Community
Does anyone else get similar readings to mine where the waves in the ECG are very flat? Almost non existent?
I always make sure I am sitting and have my index finger and thumb firmly on the corners of the Sense. I get an inconclusive result about half of the time.
I should also mention that I do have IST and it gives me a few other symptoms from time to time such as flutters, missed beats etc. At the time I did this reading my RHR was around 70BPM.
I feel like it's different from my cardiology ECG's. Any ideas where I might be going wrong?

Hello @LouiseAW and welcome to the Community. You describe a very flat ECG. I think that might put you in the group of people who tend to get inconclusive results.
Fitbit ECG App Clinician's Guide
The ECG app records a 30 second Lead I trace. This is different from your cardiology ECG's. I had to do an internet search to learn about IST. If IST stands for Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia , then you might want to ask you cardiologist if there is a relationship.
