A member asked:
Would a echocardiogram report a right bundle branch block? because it was normal, but my electrocardiogram did report a rbbb, false reading?

Right bundle branch: We share similar EKGs and I have no heart poblems. According to a recent article in the European Heart Jounal the prevalence of RBBB that is normal variant is 4 percent for men and 2 percent for women. RBBB does develop in people with lung problems, especially with COPD or Pulmonary embolus. It can develop in some people who have other processes that effect conduction.
