1 Section 3 and 4 LBBB, RBBB Bifascicular, Trifascicular Block Objectives At the conclusion of this presentation the participant will be able to Outline a systematic approach to 12 lead ECG interpretation Demonstrate the process for determining axis List criteria for LVH, RVH, RAE, LAE LBBB, RBBB, Bifasicular and trifasicular block, acute and chronic MI changes Define QTc significance Contrast features of VT vs SVT with aberrancy 2 Bundle of His divides into right and left bundle branches Left bundle branch divides into septal, anterior and posterior fascicles Bundle Branches I 3 1
2 Conduction Abnormalities BBB Causes of BBB Arterial occlusion total Arterial occlusion partial Structural changes Helpful hints r/t BBB ST segment and the T wave are opposite deflection of QRS If T waves same deflection, may mean ischemia 4 Narrow < 0.12 seconds in duration Electrical axis between 0 and +90 Normal QRS Complex I 5 QRS Interval/Bundle Branch Block Assess QRS Duration 1. QRS duration can be measured from any of the 12 leads 2. All that matters is whether the QRS is normal or wide 3. Judge QRS prolongation from the lead where the QRS appears longest 6 2
3 QRS Interval/Bundle Branch Block Assess QRS Duration cont. 4. If the QRS is: < 0.12 seconds than the QRS is normal > 0.12 seconds than the QRS is wide (greater than half a large box) 5. The limits given do not hold for children 7 Bundle Branch Block Leads to one or both bundle branches failing to conduct impulses Produces delay in depolarization of the ventricle it supplies I 8 Widened QRS complex RR configuration in chest leads Bundle Branch Block I 9 3
