Overview

There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with third degree AV block.

OR

Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of third degree AV block. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of third degree AV block include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

OR

There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with third degree AV block. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of third degree AV block, which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].

Transthoracic echocardiography is used to diagnose cardiomyopathies and valvular heart diseases as causes of third degree heart block. Transesophageal echocardiogram aids in the diagnosis of valvular abnormalities like valve abscesses. Left ventricular function can be determined using an echo, before placement of a pacemaker or defibrillator.
