Overview
Symptoms related to atrioventricular block vary and related to the degree of atrioventricular block, the ventricular rate, and the frequency of its occurrence. Patients presented with First-degree AV block are usually asymptomatic. However, severe first-degree AV block may cause symptoms similar to pace maker syndrome including heart failure symptoms, exertional intolerance. Pseudo pacemaker syndrome is defined when the PR interval is >300ms leading to atrial contraction during the closed atrioventricular valves, loss of atrioventricular synchrony and decrease in cardiac output and an increase pulmonary capillary wedge pressure.
History and symptoms
History
- In patients presented with symptoms suspicious for bradycardia or conduction disorder, comprehensive history should be taken about:[1]
- Timing, duration, severity, longevity, circumstances, triggers and alleviating factors of symptoms
- The relationship of the symptoms to medications, meals, medical interventions, emotional distress, physical exertion, positional changes, and triggers (eg, urination, defecation, cough, prolonged standing, shaving)
- systemic illness or heart disease
- cardiovascular risk assessment, family history, travel history, and review of systems
Symptoms
- Symptoms related to atrioventricular block vary and related to the degree of atrioventricular block, the ventricular rate, and the frequency of its occurrence.
- Patients presented with First-degree AV block are usually asymptomatic. However, severe First-degree AV block may cause symptoms similar to pace maker syndrome including heart failure symptoms, exertional intolerance.
- Common symptoms associate with profound First-degree atrioventricular block with PR interval >300 ms include:
- Fatigue
- Exertional intolerance
- Malaise
- Lightheadedness
- Chest pain
- Syncope
- Pseudo pacemaker syndrome is defined when the PR interval is >300ms leading to atrial contraction during the closed atrioventricular valves, loss of atrioventricular synchrony and decrease in cardiac output and an increase pulmonary capillary wedge pressure.[2]
