A member asked:

Can you tell me if an ekg shows a long delay between the p wave and the qrs complex, which type of cardiac tissue might have been damaged?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

1st degree block: If there is a QRS following every p wave, you have 1st degree AV block. The area of delay is in the right atrium between the sinus node and up to and including the atrio-ventricular junction and node.
