What is another word for Atrioventricular Blocks?
Pronunciation: [ˌatɹɪˌə͡ʊvɪntɹˈɪkjʊlə blˈɒks] (IPA) 
Atrioventricular blocks, commonly referred to as AV blocks, are a group of cardiac conditions that affect the normal electrical conduction system of the heart. This condition occurs when the electrical signals between the upper chambers (atria) and the lower chambers (ventricles) are impaired or blocked. AV blocks are often classified into three types: first-degree, second-degree, and third-degree blocks. Synonyms for atrioventricular blocks can include heart block, AV conduction block, or impaired atrioventricular conduction. These terms essentially describe the same condition, where there is a disruption in the communication between the atria and ventricles, leading to irregular heart rhythms and potential symptoms like dizziness, fainting, or chest pain.
