Subject field(s)
  • Symptoms (Medicine)

CONT

Right bundle branch block(RBBB) occurs when transmission of the electrical impulse is delayed or fails to conduct along the right bundle branch. Thus, the right ventricle depolarizes via cell-to-cell conduction spreading from the interventricular septum and left ventricle to the right ventricle.
