Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a type heart block. It results from a problem with the electrical conduction system that enables the heart to beat. It may cause no symptoms, but an ...
LBBB is linked to electrical abnormalities, causing inefficient heart pumping, dilation, and systolic dysfunction. The study found LBBB associated with increased heart failure risk, surpassing other ...
Q: I recently had an electrocardiogram as part of a routine physical exam. The report said I had a bundle branch block. What does that mean? Will I need a pacemaker? A: Bundle branch blocks are ...
PHILADELPHIA, PA—For patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy, use of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) appears to lower arrhythmic risk compared with conventional biventricular ...
SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Conduction abnormalities like complete heart block (CHB) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) remain common in today’s TAVI patients, with some facing pacemaker implantation or even ...
First-degree heart block is the mildest type and often requires no treatment. Third-degree heart block is the most severe and ...
Electrical problems in the heart can often lead to serious and fatal complications including complete heart block or heart failure. Left ventricular conduction disease occurs when there is an ...
