While being here in the hospital it has been noted that he has been in sinus bradycardia with sinus arrhythmia with occasional pauses in excess of 2.0 milliseconds and he has no new calcium blocking agents or other agents that may be ***predispose to that. *** He also recently had a 2D echocardiogram that suggested a gradient of 30 mg ***across ***his carbon prosthesis in his aortic valve.

thanks

pauses of 2 seconds, not milliseconds - sm

..other agents that would predispose (The patient) to that (pauses/AV block).... gradient of 30 mmHg across the carbon (or Carbomedics) prosthesis.....
