Transcript
AV sequential and atrial pacing are frequently employed during cardiac surgery as various degrees of heart block are often encountered perioperatively.
Prolongation of the PR interval is seen in first-degree heart block here associated with the prolonged QRS complexes often seen during bundle branch
blocks. In second-degree heart block the PR interval gradually lengthens until the impulse is no longer conducted to the ventricles. In third-degree block
there is no association between atrial and ventricular beats. The atrial and the ventricular contraction are not coordinated.
