Use the "Insert : SPOILER" tool located to the left of your reply. This will black out your answers requiring you to highlight them. Keeps the fun going for those who have yet to answer.

You could approach this from two perspectives...

First off, I need to see a 12-lead from this pt for further evaluation.

1). This appears to be a 2nd degree AV block type II with 3:1 conduction ratio. However, this type of block almost always originates in the bundle branches which would widen the QRS (not present). So the possibility is present for type I block.

2). You might be able to force 3rd degree AV block on this, but it seems that the third P wave in each cycle does conduct. 3rd degree block is usually wide as well unless you have an escape at or above the AV junction. I just don't see av dissociation here either.

My two cents...
