heart blocks

What is the cause of a heart block dysrhythmia? 

• The ectopic focus originates above the ventricles
• The electrical current has difficulty traveling down the normal conduction pathway
• The rhythm originates at the AV junctional tissue, producing retrograde depolarization
• An ectopic beat that originates in the right or left atria

An ectopic beat that originates in the right or left atria

• The electrical current is delayed or blocked along normal conduction pathways below the AV junction
• The electrical current is delayed or blocked along normal conduction pathways in the ventricles
• The electrical current is delayed or blocked along normal conduction pathways at or above the AV junction
• The electrical current is delayed or blocked along normal conduction pathways above the SA node
