CHB full form in medical term is Complete Heart Block. A person can have this condition due to factors like age, or it can be a birth defect as well. But in most cases, CHB occurs because of an unhealthy lifestyle. However, it can be a result of having a damaged heart after many heart attacks. Talking about some other reasons for someone having a complete heart block then it’ll include Myocarditis, Heart Failure, Rheumatic Fever, Cardiomyopathy, etc.
In most cases, CHB happens when the electrical rhythm of the heart isn’t normal or it is irregular. Symptoms of CHB can include periodic fainting, Dizziness, and Fatigue. Some other symptoms can be where the patient has short breaths and also complaining about sharp chest pain. Most of the time, the problem is irregular heart rate, and to fix that doctors and surgeons use pacemakers. The SA nodes generate electrical signals that make the heart beat and pump blood in the body. A pacemaker is a device that can stimulate and generate those same electrical signals as SA nodes to keep the heart working at the same rate.
