Comprehensive analysis of right fascicular and right bundle branch blocks: A multi-center study

Abstract

Electrocardiographic patterns of right bundle branch and fascicular blocks were comprehensively analyzed in a two-phase study. The research aimed to address the scarcity of literature and the absence of standardized diagnostic criteria for these conditions. It revealed a weak correlation between the cardiac axis and age and highlighted the high misdiagnosis rate of these blocks. Furthermore, it discussed the challenges in fulfilling existing diagnostic criteria. The study emphasizes the need for a more precise understanding of right ventricular conduction disorders and the importance of developing robust diagnostic criteria.
