2. Left bundle branch block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_bundle_branch_block

   Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a conduction abnormality in the heart that can be seen on an electrocardiogram (ECG). [1] In this condition, activation of the left ventricle of the heart is delayed, which causes the left ventricle to contract later than the right ventricle .

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. Heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure

   Heart failure (HF), also known as congestive heart failure (CHF), is a syndrome caused by an impairment in the heart's ability to fill with and pump blood.. Although symptoms vary based on which side of the heart is affected, HF typically presents with shortness of breath, excessive fatigue, and bilateral leg swelling. [3]

5. 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.

6. Heart block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_block

   Heart block should not be confused with other conditions, which may or may not be co-occurring, relating to the heart and/or other nearby organs that are or can be serious, including angina (heart-related chest pain), heart attack (myocardial infarction), any type of heart failure, cardiogenic shock or other types of shock, different types of ...

7. 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 ...
