Abstract

The incidence of perioperative bradyarrhythmias in patients with bifascicular or left bundle branch block (LBBB) and the influence of an additional first-degree atrioventricular (A-V) block has not been evaluated with 24-h Holter electrocardiographic monitoring. Therefore the authors assessed the rate of block progression and bradyarrhythmia in these patients.
