2º AV Block Mobitz Type I


Nice ilustration of second degree AV Block Mobitz type I (Wenckebach) showing the progressive PR segment prolongation until a beat is dropped due to failure of the AV node to conduct the impulse. Then the cycle is reset again given the same pattern prolonged, prolonged, prolonged, dropped.
