View allI'm a bit concerned about the results from my ECG. It shows an incomplete right bundle branch block (IRBBB) with a QRS duration of 114 ms. Should I be worried about this, and are there any additional tests I might need to consider?
Right Bundle Branch Block (IRBBB) or Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB) on an ECG can sometimes be a normal variant, especially in healthy individuals. However, it can also be associated with underlying heart conditions. Since your ECG shows IRBBB with a QRS duration of 114 ms, it is advisable to further evaluate this finding. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation, which may include additional tests such as an echocardiogram, stress test, or Holter monitor. These tests can help determine the underlying cause of the IRBBB and assess your cardiac health. It is important to monitor this condition and follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to ensure proper management.

I'm concerned because my mother-in-law is scheduled for pacemaker surgery soon, and we recently lost a relative after a similar procedure. I'm really worried about what to expect. Whats the success rate of pacemaker surgeries? Are there usually a lot of complications afterward? And is it possible for someone to live normally after getting a pacemaker? Would love some guidance on what we should be prepared for.
Pacemaker surgery is generally considered a safe and effective procedure with a high success rate. Most patients experience significant improvements in quality of life and symptom relief after the surgery. While complications can occur, they are relatively rare and may include infection, bleeding, or issues with the pacemaker leads. Most people can live a normal, active life with a pacemaker, but it's important to follow the cardiologist's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments to ensure the device is functioning properly. Discuss your concerns with the cardiologist at Medanta Hospital to understand the specific risks and benefits in your mother-in-law's case.
