Patients with third degree AV block typically experience a lower overall measured [[heart rate]] (as low as 28 beats per minute during sleep), [[low blood pressure]], and poor circulation.  In some cases, exercising may be difficult, as the heart cannot react quickly enough to sudden changes in demand or sustain the higher heart rates required for sustained activity.  Complete heart block associated with a slower pacemaker can result in [[dizziness]], [[presyncope]] and [[syncope]].

Overview

Patients with third degree AV block typically experience a lower overall measured heart rate (as low as 28 beats per minute during sleep), low blood pressure, and poor circulation. In some cases, exercising may be difficult, as the heart cannot react quickly enough to sudden changes in demand or sustain the higher heart rates required for sustained activity. Complete heart block associated with a slower pacemaker can result in dizziness, presyncope and syncope.

History

The following history should be elicited while investigating a case of complete heart block

Symptoms

Patients with complete heart block present with varied symptomatology.
