High Degree Atrioventricular Block in Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) and Role of Early Revascularization

High degree atrioventricular block (HDAVB) is a rare complication of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and often requires pacemaker implantation. We describe a case of reversal of HDAVB in a patient with dual atrioventricular node blood supply following coronary revascularization and p...
