Would appreciate your input in terms of verifying DX of IRBBB, severity,
treatment and prognosis.

Below is the web link to the EKG:

Yes, the EKG diagnosis is incomplete right bundle branch block.

This information by itself does not allow a physician to make any
meaningful comments about the possible underlying causes.

Without knowing the underlying cause, nothing can be written about
either severity, treatment, or prognosis.

Would suggest that a referral be made to consult with a cardiologist
who should be able to comment meaningfully about the possible
underlying causes once armed with information from a complete history
and physical examination along with pertinent test results including
the EKG.

Thanks for your time.

You are welcome, Martin :-)

mind, and strength. Afterall, HE is the Source of all time including
that which those who are of this world would say is mine.
