Abstract

Objective To investigate the characteristics and therapy of atrioventricular block(AVB) caused by acute viral myocarditis. Methods 38 patients with AVB caused by viral myocarditis were recorded by electrocardiogram monitoring before they were offered corresponding treatment. Besides, the clinical data and therapeutic effect were analyzed.Results Among 38 patients,35 patients were cured;2 cases with second degree type I or type II alternative AVB; 1 case with third degree AVB. Conclusion Most of the patients with AVB caused by acute viral myocarditis are reversible and can be cured by positive therapy; there is no influence on hemodynamics in a few patients who can't completely recovered; only some patients who influence hemodynamics need be treated by cardiac pacemaker.
