Some people use the "turn signal method" to determine if a BBB exists. W i LL iam. Oftentimes, the biggest clue of a bundle branch block is found in lead V1 using the turn signal method. During a right bundle branch block, activation of the right ventricle is delayed as depolarization has to spread across the septum from the left ventricle. Right bundle branch blocks do not affect the left ventricle so the early part of the QRS is unaffected.
Secondary R wave production is present in the right precordial leads V1-V3 and a wide often slurred S wave is present in the lateral leads I, V5-V6. Bio Latest Posts. Latest posts by Salim Rezaie see all. Like this article? Share on facebook Share on Facebook. Share on twitter Share on Twitter.

Thus, the initial depolarization of the left ventricle occurs via impulses spreading from the right ventricle, but after a while the impulse passes the block in the left bundle branch and executes the remained of ventricular depolarization normally.
