June 23, 2009 (Boston, Massachusetts) — Prolongation of the PR interval in the ambulatory setting is associated with increased risks of atrial fibrillation, pacemaker implantation, and all-cause ...

Prolongation of the PR interval by more than 200 ms, which signifies first-degree atrioventricular block, has been found to increase the risk of developing atrial fibrillation, the need for a ...

Figure 2 shows a regular rhythm at a rate of 90 beats/min. The QRS complex duration is increased (0.14 sec), and there is a morphology of a right bundle branch block with an RSR' morphology in lead V1 ...

The PR interval is the time from the beginning of the P wave (atrial depolarization) to the beginning of the QRS complex (ventricular depolarization). The normal PR interval measures 0.12-0.20 seconds ...

A common electrocardiogram finding that has largely been considered insignificant may actually signal an increased risk of atrial fibrillation, the future need for a permanent pacemaker and an ...

BOSTON – A common electrocardiogram (ECG) finding that has largely been considered insignificant may actually signal an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (a chronic heart rhythm disturbance), the ...

June 24 -- TUESDAY, June 23 (HealthDay News) -- A slight abnormality in an electrocardiogram (EKG), until now thought to be insignificant, can be a warning sign of future cardiac problems and an ...
