A member asked:
I am 61 yrs. old. i've recently gone from irbbb to complete rbbb. how much greater is my risk of heart attack or failure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No greater: Rbbb is a common finding having no bearing on one's risk for developing a heart attack or congestive heart failure. The "block" refers to an electrical not a vascular block, and the heart is in most cases easily able to reroute the electrical stimulus down another pathway.
