Cervical facet joint block – minor injections at the joints of the affected regions of the cervical spine; Media branch block and radio-frequency ablation – diagnosis and alleviation of pain from specific medial branches of the spinal nerve upon administering anaesthetics in the cervical region of interest to locate the area for treatment ...
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 .
Tachycardia-dependent bundle branch block; A simple way to quickly differentiate between the two types is to note the deflection of the QRS complex in the V1 lead. A (V1) QRS segment deflected down indicates left bundle branch block, while a deflection up indicates right bundle branch block. In both types, the QRS is wide (> 0.12 seconds).

An intraventricular block is a heart conduction disorder — heart block of the ventricles of the heart. [1] An example is a right bundle branch block, right fascicular block, bifascicular block, trifascicular block. [2] [3]
An electrophysiology study of the conduction system can help discern the severity of conduction system disease. In an electrophysiology study, trifascicular block due to AV nodal disease is represented by a prolonged AH interval (denoting prolonged time from impulse generation in the atria and conduction to the bundle of His) with a relatively preserved HV interval (denoting normal conduction ...
Medial medullary syndrome, also known as inferior alternating syndrome, hypoglossal alternating hemiplegia, lower alternating hemiplegia, [1] or Dejerine syndrome, [2] is a type of alternating hemiplegia characterized by a set of clinical features resulting from occlusion of the anterior spinal artery.
Tachycardia-dependent bundle branch block (TDBBB) can affect either ventricle in the heart, and occurs when the heart's rate of contraction reaches an elevated level and becomes uncoupled from the heart's refractory period (the time it takes for a cardiac cell to "reset" for future contraction).
