A 90 year old women has very severe fatigue and occasion dizziness with walking. No CP, No SOB, No swelling. Cardiac catheterization revealed some coronary artery aneurysms (which in general are not treated.) PMH reveals mild heart failure, controlled hyperlipidemia, controlled HTN, pre diabetes, bilateral hip. arthroplasty.
Meds: triamterene 37.5mg/ HCTZ 25mg one half of a tablet daily, Olmasarten 20 mg one half tablet daily. ASA. 81 mg qd, rosuvastatin 10 mg. Levothyroxine 50 mcg, and Namenda XR 14 mg. Vital signs are stable. Bp is 127/85, pulse 66. An elective EKG last week revealed new onset "Left Bundle Branch Block". Cardiac consult was already ordered.
Question: Is there prudent and/or cutting edge treatment for the Left Bundle Branch Block??
