ECG Findings
- P wave is either:
- Absent
- Abnormal with PR < 120ms
- Retrograde, which may be inverted in inferior leads
- PJC arrives before next sinus beat
- Followed by compensatory pause
- From AV node region, with ventricular response usually normal, so QRS complexes usually narrow
- If conduction abnormal, may have RBBB morphology
Clinical Significance
- Less common than PVCs or PACs
- Differentiate from WPW (short PR)
- May be seen in healthy individuals with no clinical significance
- Or in pathology such as valvular disease, drug toxicity, electrolyte abnormalities
