Left bundle branch block affects the heart's electrical conduction system. When you have left bundle branch block, the left branch of this conducting system is partially or completely blocked. This causes the left ventricle to contract a little later than it should.
Left bundle branch block is a delay or blockage in the electrical impulse conduction through the left bundle branch of the heart. Treatment for left bundle branch block depends on the underlying cause, such as heart disease or high blood pressure. It may include managing risk factors, such as controlling blood pressure, addressing heart disease, or considering a pacemaker in some cases.
No
You probably misheard bundle as bubble. Like me, you have left bundle branch block. Google that for more info.
Block of anterior branch ol left bundle
Left bundle branch block can sometimes be reversible if it is caused by conditions such as electrolyte imbalances, medication side effects, or acute myocardial infarction. However, if left bundle branch block is due to underlying heart disease or other structural abnormalities, it may not be reversible but can be managed with appropriate medical intervention.
There are several types of left bundle branch block, each producing its own characteristic mechanism of failure. In each case, the nerve impulse is blocked or delayed. Patients with LBBB may have left ventricular disease or cardiomyopathy.
A complete left bundle branch block (LBBB) occurs when there is a blockage in the electrical pathway (bundle branch) that carries signals to the left side of the heart. This can cause a delay in the electrical signals reaching the left ventricle, leading to changes in the appearance of the ECG waveforms. It may indicate an underlying heart condition and should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.
You can see the M pattern in ECG in place of ORS complex. In case of right bundle branch block, you see the M pattern in lead V one. In case of left bundle branch block, you see the M pattern in lead V six.
Bifascicular block is where there are two or more blockages within the conduction system of the heart. For example right bundle branch block with left anterior fasicular block will be considered bifasicular block
The left bundle branch divides into anterior and posterior fascicles, running along the septum. The right bundle branch is located in the right side of the interventricular septum.
The two bundles initially are together at a junction called the bundle of His.
