A member asked:

Im waiting a pfo closure and my ecg showed sinus rhythm with partial right bundle branch block are they the same thing?

No: Incomplete rbbb is the textbook finding in the presence of pfo and is due to right ventricular volume overload over a long time. Irbbb, itself, is harmless, doesn't cause symptoms, is just a marker, and doesn't need treatment. Sinus rhythm is the medical name for normal rhythm.

Ecg: The pfo is a hole in the heart, the ECG findings are different and not necessarily related to the pfo. The ECG findings are nothing to worry about.
