Overview

Treatment is directed at the underlying cause of left bundle branch block, such as ST elevation myocardial infarction. Patients with syncope and LBBB may have a rhythm disturbance that requires a pacemaker. Given the dysynchrony that occurs with left ventricular contractility, cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure patients may be of benefit.
