In what way damage to the conduction system of the heart impact stroke volume?

Dr. Soren Singel answered

Specializes in Neurosurgery

Lower stroke volume: If part of your heart are not properly innervated, the muscle will not contract as needed and the stroke volume may diminish. Uneven contraction may lead to thrombus formation and potentially stroke, check with your cardiologist.
