Total Atrioventricular Block

Patients with total atrioventricular block are of particular interest and prone to severe prognosis unless treated with emergency cardiac pacing. We evaluated different types of leads and their impact on the myocardium, according to the fixation type and pacing method.. A pacemaker patient has a different depolarization pattern and a single chamber pacemaker, has by definition, an intracardiac desynchronization and a different electro-mechanical coupling activity. The presence of late potentials is an independent prognosis factor for cardiac death and electrical vulnerability, especially after myocardial infarction(MI). Late potentials recorded as magnitude vector are the expresion of late depolarization of the surrounding tissue and represent the morfological substrate for reentry. Thus, the incidence of late potentials after pacemaker implant, represents the expresion of electrical vulnerability of the stimulated right ventricular myocardium. In order to deeply study the parameters of magnitude vectors, we noticed the appearance of late potentials during the transitory stimulation in acute atrioventricular block and a restoration of vector normal parameters, after conduction recovery and sinus rhythm conversion.

Objective: Complete heart block is an extremely rare and serious complication in pregnancy. Pregnancy outcome in patients with atrioventricular conduction block are unknown, with only a limited number of case reports published. This paper is aimed to report our case and review the available background literature. Method: Case report. Case: A twenty‐nine years old primigravida in labor presented at 38 weeks of gestation with referral from the primary health center due to bradycardia and her previous history of cardiac problem. Patient has been diagnosed with total atrioventricular block since 2 years ago. Electrocardiography assessment showed the presence of complete heart block. She was then planned for an emergency Caesarean section and later a temporary transvenous pacemaker was implanted. Conclusion: Management of complete atrioventricular block in pregnancy requires a good team consisting of obstetrician, anesthesiologist and cardiologist. Keywords: atrioventricular, bradycardia, heart block, pacemaker, pregnancy
