Overview
Laboratory tests in patients with second degree AV block include checking the levels of serum electrolytes as calcium, magnesium and potassium. Myocarditis related lab tests as lyme titres, HIV tests, PCR for enteroviruses, and Chagas titres should be done also.
Laboratory findings
Patients with second degree AV block should be checked for the following laboratory tests:[1]
- Serum electrolytes
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Myocardial enzymes in patients with myocardial infarction
- Myocarditis related laboratory tests as the following:[2]
- Lyme titres
- HIV tests
- PCR for enteroviruses
- Chagas titres
