Atrioventricular Blocks
First-Degree AV Block – pg. 61
• Delay in the conduction from the atria to the ventricles. With
first degree blocks, every PR interval is >0.20 seconds or 5
boxes in length. Every “p” wave causes a “QRS” or every atria
depolarization reaches the ventricles.
So what is this?
Second-Degree AV Block Type I
(Mobitz Type I, or Wenckebach), pg. 62-63
P to QRS Ratio
• The ratio may remain constant or vary.
– Pg. 62-63
What’s This?
Second-Degree AV Block Type II (Mobitz Type II)
3:1
2:1
What is this?
Third-Degree AV Block
Third-Degree AV Block
Idioventricular rhythm pacing the ventricles
Junctional escape rhythm pacing the ventricles
• Complete dissociation between the atria and ventricles or
complete heart block.
• Atria are depolarizing but not conducting to ventricles so
another pacemaker must take over in the ventricles.
• True 3rd degree heart block will have the atria rate > the
ventricular rate.
• Complete dissociation between the atria and ventricles or
complete heart block.
• Atria are depolarizing but not conducting to ventricles so another
pacemaker must take over in the ventricles.
• True 3rd degree heart block will have the atria rate > the
ventricular rate.
AV Dissociation: Ventricular rate is faster than the arial rate.
• Transient, non – lethal condition
