Brief Answer:
Electrodes are not placed correctly

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

From your ECG it seems the electrodes are not placed correctly, especially those on hands and on legs. I think your nurse has confused the electrodes.
I would advise you to repeat the ECG, and ask the nurse to be more attentive.

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
