Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Damage to the AV node can cause multiple P waves on an ECG, as the atria may start pacing independently of the AV node. This is known as atrial fibrillation, and it can cause an irregular heart rhythm. The absence of the T wave or multiple Q waves are not typically associated with damage to the AV node, and multiple T waves are not a recognized ECG abnormality.
