Review title image File:Bundle_branch_block.svg which appears to be too narrow to meet the criteria for BBB (as mentioned in the article >120ms). In fact, looking at the curvature of the QRS and the fact that a small portion of the biphasic p waves appears to travel backward in time, I suspect that this is not an actual EKG tracing or from obsolete equipment.

Opinions? LT90001 (talk) 02:06, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and thanks for bringing this up. I had proposed these articles for merger in April so its kind of unfinished business on my part, but there was no consensus as to procedure at that time. The opinions raised then can be found at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Archive 34#Bundle branch block. Ochiwar (talk) 08:08, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see. I'm going to detag the pages if there's no objection; I don't think consensus will be built on this one (for the reasons in the archive). LT90001 (talk) 09:01, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I agree with that view. Ochiwar (talk) 09:07, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
