Second-Degree Interatrial Block in Hemodialysis Patients
Interatrial conduction delays manifest as a prolonged P-wave duration on surface ECG and the term interatrial block (IAB) has been coined. They are usually fixed, but cases of intermittent IAB have been described, suggesting functional conduction block at the Bachmann bundle region. We report 2 cases of patients on chronic hemodialysis therapy presenting with intermittent IAB.

1) While it is possible only one type of second-degree AV block exists electrophysiologically, the available data do not justify such a conclusion and it would seem more appropriate to remain a "splitter," and advocate separation and definition of multiple mechanisms, than to be a "lumper," and embrace a unitary concept. 2) The clinical classification of type I and type II AV block, based on pr...
متن کاملSecond-degree AV block.
Second-degree AV block includes a variety of conduction patterns of variable prognostic significance. Careful analysis of the pattern of PR and R-R intervals, the QRS axis and duration, as well as the presence or absence of structural heart disease should allow the medical director to assess the applicant's risk for life insurance.
متن کاملInteratrial Block: A Virtual Pandemic Requiring Attention
Interatrial block (IAB) denotes a conduction delay between the two atria (P-wave duration ≥110 ms). Depending on the severity of the block, IAB can be partial or advanced. Even though several studies have reported a high prevalence of IAB, it still remains a diagnosis many neglect without any follow-up. The crisis in IAB is undramatic until predictable complications appear. Nevertheless, the da...
