Why does someone need a ventricular pacemaker for mobitz type 2?
7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Type II AV block: This implies a high risk for progression to complete AV block. Complete AV block results in a slow escape rhythm which is almost always inadequate to adequately perfuse the body. A pacemaker can ensure adequate heart rate to support life and activity.
