There is no established system for the classification of third degree AV block. But AV dissociation can be further classified into two subtypes as follows:
| [[First-degree atrioventricular block]]
===AV Dissociation by Default===
|
* P waves associated with 1:1 [[atrioventricular ]] conduction
* PR interval >200 ms
* [[atrioventricular delay]] because no P waves are blocked
|-
| [[Second-degree AV block]]
|
* P waves with a constant rate (<100 bpm)
* [[Atrioventricular conduction]] is present but not 1:1
*''' [[Mobitz type I]]'''
:*P waves with a constant rate (<100 bpm)
:*  Presence of periodic single non conducted P wave associated with P waves before and after the non conducted P wave with inconstant PR intervals
*'''[[Mobitz type II]]'''
:* Presence of P waves with a constant rate (< 100 bpm) with a periodic single non conducted P wave associated with other P waves before and after the non conducted P wave with constant PR intervals (excluding 2:1 atrioventricular block)
*'''2:1 [[atrioventricular block]]'''
:* P waves with a constant rate (or near-constant rate because of [[ventriculophasic sinus arrhythmia]]) rate (<100 bpm), every other P wave conducts to the [[ventricles]]
*'''[[Advanced]], [[high-grade]] or high-degree [[atrioventricular block]]'''
:* ≥2 consecutive P waves at a constant physiologic rate that do not conduct to the [[ventricles ]] with evidence for some [[atrioventricular conduction]]
|-
|[[Third-degree AV block]] ([[complete heart block]])
|
*No evidence of [[atrioventricular conduction]]
* '''[[Vagally mediated atrioventricular block]]'''
:*Any type of atrioventricular block due to increased [[parasympathetic]] tone
*'''[[Infranodal block]]'''
:* [[Atrioventricular conduction block]] with evidence of conduction block  distal to the [[atrioventricular node]]


* In this [[rhythm]] there is an independent ventricular pacemaker response to slowing of the dominant atrial pacemaker.

===AV Dissociation by Usurpation===
 
* In this rhythm there is acceleration of a latent pacemaker that takes control of cardiac conduction by exceeding the intrinsic atrial rate.

Overview

Third-degree or complete atrioventricular block suggests no conduction at all from atria to ventricles and may be paroxysmal or persistent and is usually associated with either a junctional or ventricular escape rhythm. Complete atrioventricular block may be identified in the setting of atrial fibrillation when the ventricular response is slow (<50 bpm) and regular. However, junctional rhythm in the setting of atrioventricular block may be present.

Classification

Term Classification Definition
Atrioventricular block First-degree atrioventricular block
Second-degree AV block
  • P waves with a constant rate (<100 bpm)
  • Presence of periodic single non conducted P wave associated with P waves before and after the non conducted P wave with inconstant PR intervals
  • Presence of P waves with a constant rate (< 100 bpm) with a periodic single non conducted P wave associated with other P waves before and after the non conducted P wave with constant PR intervals (excluding 2:1 atrioventricular block)
Third-degree AV block (complete heart block)
