EKG shows sinus brady at 57 with U waves

Subject: EKG shows sinus brady at 57 with U waves

Ok, I'm confused. I've never heard this before. What does it mean and how should it be transcribed? The hosptial I work for likes EKG to be expanded so I know I need to do that, I'm thinking "brady" needs to be "bradycardia" and maybe the 57 is referring to beats. So: "Electrocardiogram shows sinus bradycardia at 57 beats/min. with U waves." Is that right or am I way off?

and then says CROIMI (spells out).  I'm thinking IMI might be inferior myocardial infarction, but no mention of this prior although does have CAD and is status post CABG.  Don't know what CRO would be, though.  Any suggestions?

At 0o jugular veins should be filled. An impulse visible just prior to S1 or the upstroke of the carotid is the "a-wave". This will be followed by a x-descent. The 'c' wave is usually not visible. The 'v' wave occurs after the start of the carotid upstroke and during ventricular systole (which is atrial diastole). When the tricuspid valve opens there is a brisk descent (y-descent).

I cannot tell if he is saying "in" or "and" because he's just saying the N sound for either all through the report for these words.  Phrase in question:  "Mild mucosal thickening N scattered ethmoid air cells N the maxillary sinuses."  I was thinking "in" for the first and "and" for the second.  Correct?
