A first degree AV block is when the electrical signal is simply slowed a bit more than usual but not to the point that you end up skipping any heart beats.
Dear Dr. Donohue: My EKG showed "sinus rhythm with poor R wave progression. Borderline first degree AV block. Consider anteroseptal infarct." I was then given a radioactive stress test, preceded ...
Nearly 90% had atrial fibrillation at baseline, 5% had first-degree AV block, 33% had right bundle branch block (RBBB), and 7% had LBBB, left anterior fascicular block (LAFB), or left posterior ...
