Overview

Laboratory studies are warranted to diagnose etiologies of secondary heart block such as infections (either bacterial or viral), drug toxicity, and electrolyte abnormalities, and to screen for coincident problems that might either cause or exacerbate a previously presented compensated heart block.

Laboratory Findings

There are plenty of diagnostic laboratory findings associated with third degree AV block. Laboratory studies are warranted to diagnose etiologies of secondary heart block such as infections (either bacterial or viral), drug toxicity, and electrolyte abnormalities, and to screen for coincident problems that might either cause or exacerbate a previously presented compensated heart block.

Primary lab work up of patients with third degree AV block might include but not limitted to the followings:

  • lily of the valley
  • Oleander
  • Foxglove
  • Bufonidae toads
  • Cardiac enzyme levels: if history or ECG findings are suggestive of active coronary artery disease.
