Aeromedical Concerns in Asymptomatic Aviators with Left Bundle Branch Block
Asymptomatic aviators with LBBB had elevated risk for CM (20%). Association with CAD exceeded 10% at 10 yr. Findings support current USAF policy requiring extensive cardiac evaluation and follow-up for LBBB. More prospective research is needed to validate these findings.
