- Ectopic-atrial efferent block
- Ectopic rhythms with efferent blocks include ectopic-atrial efferent blocks and ectopic-ventricular efferent blocks.
- Ectopic atrial efferent block is an efferent block that occurs between the ectopic atrial pacemaker and the surrounding atrial muscles (ectopic-atrial junction). Its ECG performance is similar to that of sinoatrial block, except that ectopic ventricular P waves are used instead of sinus P waves.
- Ectopic rhythm
- If the heartbeat is not caused by the sinoatrial node's stimulus, but by other cell groups, such as cells in other parts of the atrium, ventricular cells, etc. Atrial premature beats, atrioventricular border premature beats, etc., are all abnormal phenomena. If you find it on the ECG, you should find out the cause. Ventricular premature beats should be treated in time, and ventricular fibrillation is very serious and should be rescued in time.

- Ectopic-ventricular efferent block is an efferent block that occurs between an ectopic ventricular pacing point and its surrounding ventricular muscles (ectopic-ventricular junction). High ectopic-ventricular efferent block can cause extreme bradycardia and easily induce ventricular fibrillation and ventricular arrest. Therefore, ectopic ventricular block is a serious disease sign. [1]
