  2. Left axis deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_axis_deviation

    The hexaxial reference system is a diagram that is used to determine the heart's electrical axis in the frontal plane.. In electrocardiography, left axis deviation (LAD) is a condition wherein the mean electrical axis of ventricular contraction of the heart lies in a frontal plane direction between −30° and −90°.

  3. First-degree atrioventricular block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-degree_atrio...

    The most common causes of first-degree heart block are AV nodal disease, enhanced vagal tone (for example in athletes), myocarditis, acute myocardial infarction (especially acute inferior MI), electrolyte disturbances and medication. The medications that most commonly cause first-degree heart block are those that increase the refractory time of ...

  4. Bundle branch block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_branch_block

    This results in altered pathways for ventricular depolarization. Since the electrical impulse can no longer use the preferred pathway across the bundle branch, it may move instead through muscle fibers in a way that both slows the electrical movement and changes the directional propagation of the impulses.

  5. Paradoxical embolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradoxical_embolism

    A myocardial infarction in the setting of a paradoxical embolism are caused by the emboli disrupting blood flow in a coronary artery. Physical findings that should be evaluated include a comprehensive neurological examination for evaluation of stroke symptoms such as weakness, gait changes, slurred speech, and facial droop.

  6. Left anterior fascicular block - Wikipedia

    It can be seen in approximately 4% of cases of acute myocardial infarction [citation needed] It is the most common type of intraventricular conduction defect seen in acute anterior myocardial infarction, and the left anterior descending artery is usually the culprit vessel. It can be seen with acute inferior wall myocardial infarction.

    S wave of longer duration than R wave or greater than 40 ms in leads I and V6. Normal R wave peak time in both V5 and V6, but greater than 50 ms in V1. The first three criteria are needed for diagnosis. The fourth is needed when a pure dominant R waver is present on V1. [3]

  9. Coronary circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_circulation

    Severe ischemia can cause the heart muscle to die from hypoxia, such as during a myocardial infarction. Chronic moderate ischemia causes contraction of the heart to weaken, known as myocardial hibernation. [citation needed] In addition to metabolism, the coronary circulation possesses unique pharmacologic characteristics.
