  2. Left bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_bundle_branch_block

    Electrocardiogram showing left bundle branch block and irregular rhythm due to supraventricular extrasystoles. A left bundle branch block. LBBB is diagnosed on a 12-lead ECG. In adults, it is seen as wide QRS complexes lasting ≥120ms with characteristic QRS shapes in the precordial leads, although narrower complexes are seen in children. [4]

  3. Bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_branch_block

    A bundle branch block can be diagnosed when the duration of the QRS complex on the ECG exceeds 120 ms. A right bundle branch block typically causes prolongation of the last part of the QRS complex and may shift the heart's electrical axis slightly to the right.

  4. Sgarbossa's criteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sgarbossa's_criteria

    Sgarbossa's criteria are a set of electrocardiographic findings generally used to identify myocardial infarction (also called acute myocardial infarction or a "heart attack") in the presence of a left bundle branch block (LBBB) or a ventricular paced rhythm. [1] Myocardial infarction (MI) is often difficult to detect when LBBB is present on ECG ...

  5. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    Normal 12-lead ECG A 12-lead ECG of a 26-year-old male with an incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB). The overall goal of performing an ECG is to obtain information about the electrical functioning of the heart.

  6. Junctional ectopic tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junctional_Ectopic_Tachycardia

    JET is most commonly diagnosed using a 12-lead ECG. The appearance is usually of a tachycardia with rapid, regular ventricular rates of 170-260 beats per minute. [6] The QRS complexes are usually narrow, but may be broad if a bundle branch block is present. There may a 1:1 relationship between atria and ventricular activity with a short RP ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Bundle_Branch_Block

    So if the block happens on the right side, it’s referred to as a right bundle branch block. So with this type, the electrical signal starts at the SA node, contracts the atria, moves through the AV node, splits at the bundle of His, and then moves down the left bundle branch but is blocked on the right bundle branch.

  8. Heart block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_block

    Infra-Hisian blocks may occur at the left or right bundle branches ("bundle branch block") or the fascicles of the left bundle branch ("fascicular block" or "Hemiblock"). SA and AV node blocks are each divided into three degrees, with second-degree blocks being divided into two types (written either "type I or II" or "type 1 or 2").

  9. Dilated cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilated_cardiomyopathy

    When left bundle-branch block (LBBB) is accompanied by right axis deviation (RAD), the rare combination is considered to be highly suggestive of dilated or congestive cardiomyopathy. [29] [30] Echocardiogram shows left ventricular dilatation with normal or thinned walls and reduced ejection fraction.
