Medical Therapy
- Commonly, there is no need for treating first-degree AV block.
- Permanent pacemaker indicates only for symptomatic first-degree AV block with PR>300 ms, neuromuscular disease, or in presence of wide QRS compelex.
- First-degree AV block in the setting of acute myocardial infarction usually reverses after recovery from myocardial infarction.
- Antiarrhythmic medications should be avoided in first-degreeAV block.[1]
