Transient right bundle branch block produced by heart catheterization in man - 12/10/17
Abstract |
In a patient with pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular strain pattern, heart catheterization produced transient complete right bundle branch block (QRS interval, 0.13 second) which persisted for 1 hour and was followed by gradual recovery during the next 20 minutes. During the recovery period, alternating phases of wide and narrow QRS complexes were observed. In spite of the recovery of the ventricular conduction time, several changes (T-wave inversion in Leads II, III, and aVF; S wave in V6) did not disappear before several days. Theoretical and practical consequences are discussed.
