What does possible anterior infarct age undetermined on ECG analysis mean?

Most ECG machines are designed to pick up certain abnormalities in the tracing, they will therefore give suggestions of what could be wrong. Possible anterior infarct means that there is possible cell death in the front (anterior) part of the heart. BUT these automatic analysis are very unreliable and just a bit of movement can lead it to saying possible heart attack on a perfectly normal ECG. Therefore, always ask a professional who is trained in reading ECGs for the diagnosis - don't rely on the machine. age undetermined just means whoever did the ECG did not enter the patient's age into the machine before taking the ecg.
