HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The pulse rate (vent rate) is normal , the range is 60 to 100, so a value of 66 is fine.
The pr interval is slightly below normal but the qrs duration is fine.
If he is having shortness of breath or other difficulties breathing, he should be assessed by a cardiologist especially if there is a history of enlarged heart.
He would likely need an echo to take a look at the function of the heart. This would assess if it is working well.
I hope this helps
