Definition
Cessation of appropriate electrical conduction down either the left of right bundle branch.
Left bundle branch block
Pathophysiology
Essentially, the following can cause LBBB: aortic stenosis, dilated cardiomyopathy, MI, CAD
ECG Changes
Think WiLLiaM. There's a "W" in V1 and an "M" in V6 in Left BBB.
