Impulse Conduction Abnormalities
Atrial Standstill
Bundle Branch Block
Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (Ventricular Preexcitation Syndrome
- This syndrome occurs when the conduction travels from the SA node and then completely bypasses the AV
node and travels to the bundle of His or the ventricles.
Causes
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (cats); congenital heart disorders
ECG Appearance: Short PR interval; Prolonged QRS complex; Notch in the R wave
Treatment
Treatment for tachycardia if necessary: digoxin, quinidine etc.
Sick Sinus Syndrome
- This is a blanket term used to describe multiple abnormalities of the SA node involving impulse formation and conduction disturbances.
Causes
Myocardial diseases, idiopathic, breed predispositions (e.g. miniature schnauzer)
ECG: Variable depending on the specific SA abnormality
Treatment
Surgical implantation of a pacemaker; +/- antiarrhythmic treatments
