Abnormal ECG

Does anyone know about left anterior Fascicular Block?

  1. Were you or someone close to you recently diagnosed? Doing a little research I can see that it has something to do with your heartbeat signal going to the left bundle branch and it makes the left ventricle contract later than the right ventricle. Have you spoken to a cardiologist? They will have better answers to this question. Also, you should visit one of our other communities for heart disease https://cardiovasculardisease.net -Olivia

    1. Left anterior fascicular block (LAFB) is a relatively uncommon conduction abnormality in the heart's electrical system.
      It involves a delay or interruption in the electrical signals traveling through the left anterior fascicle of the left bundle branch.
      This can cause changes in the pattern of how the heart contracts, which may be detected on an electrocardiogram (ECG).
