In second-degree type II AV nodal block (a.k.a. Mobitz Type II AV block), the AV node becomes completely refractory to conduction on an intermittent basis. For example, three consecutive P waves may ...

Some consider 2:1 AV block to be type II block, claiming that the PR interval doesn't lengthen. What they don't realize is that determining whether the PR interval lengthens requires at least 2 ...

Your heart isn’t plugged into an outlet. And you don’t use a switch to turn it on. But just like a lamp, your heart runs on an electrical system. Every time your heart beats, an electrical signal ...

The diagnosis is right bundle branch block, left anterior fascicular block, Mobitz type I (Wenckebach) with 2:1 and 3:2 atrioventricular conduction (Figure 2). The rhythm is regular, except for the ...

Mobitz type I, also known as the Wenckebach block, is a subtype of second-degree atrioventricular (AV) block. Mobitz type I is a type of conduction disorder, which happens when the electrical signals ...

Second-degree heart block is a type of heart rhythm disorder. There are two types of second degree heart block — Mobitz type 1 and Mobitz type 2. Mobitz type 2 heart block occurs when the electrical ...

This ECG has both second degree AV block with 2:1 block and second degree type I AV block. Note that intermittent P waves conduct to the ventricles on this ECG tracing, however it is clear that some ...
