Overview
- Atrioventricular (AV) blocks must be differentiated from other heart rhythm abnormalities. The temporal association of the P waves, nature of the QRS complexes, and irregularities of RR interval can help in distinguishing AV block from other arrhythmias.
Atrioventricular Block Differential Diagnosis
- Atrioventricular block can be differentiated from atrioventricular dissociation, junctional rhythm, and multifocal atrial tachycardia based on their echocardiographic characteristics.
- Below is a table depicting properties of each arrhythmia.
