Overview
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) remains the leading cause of mortality all over the world. Electrical conduction abnormalities commonly complicate acute myocardial infarction, leading to a further rise in long and short term morbidities and mortality rates. [1] Different types of conduction abnormalities can follow MI, with bradyarrhythmias and atrioventricular (AV) block representing the most common. Other post-MI conduction abnormalities include supraventricular arrhythmias and ventricular arrhythmias.
Classification
Bradyarrhythmia:
Atrioventricular blocks:
Bundle branch blocks:
- Left bundle branch block (LBBB)
- Right bundle branch block (RBBB)
- Right bundle branch block(RBBB) with left anterior fascicular block (LAFB)
- RBBB with left posterior fascicular block (LPFB)
- Alternating bundle branch block
- Bifascicular block plus PR prolongation (trifascicular block)
