|---|---|
| palmitoyl-CoA dependent dehydrogenase | <chemical> Sum of reactions catalyzed by fatty acyl-CoA oxidase, enoyl-CoA hydratase (EC 4.2.1.17) and beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.35) Synonym: palmitoyl-coenzyme a dependent dehydrogenase (26 Jun 1999) |
| paracervical block anaesthesia | Regional anaesthesia of the cervix uteri by injection of local anaesthetic solution into tissues adjacent to the cervix. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic block | <biochemistry, molecular biology> An obstruction in a biochemical pathway caused by a mutation that has crippled production of an enzyme critical to the pathway. (07 May 1998) |
| partial heart block | Impulses penetrate the atrioventricular junction in some relation to the ventricular rate. Synonym: incomplete atrioventricular block. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retrograde block | Impaired conduction backward from the ventricles or A-V node into the atria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peri-infarction block | An electrocardiographic abnormality associated with an old myocardial infarct and caused by delayed activation of the myocardium in the region of the infarct; characterised by an initial vector directed away from the infarcted region with the terminal vector directed toward it. (05 Mar 2000) |
| RNA-dependent ATPase | <enzyme> Requires single-stranded polynucleotide as cofactor Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- Synonym: atpase, RNA-dependent (26 Jun 1999) |
| phase I block | Inhibition of nerve impulse transmission across the myoneural junction associated with depolarisation of the motor endplate, as in the muscle paralysis produced by succinylcholine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phase II block | Inhibition of nerve impulse transmission across the myoneural junction unaccompanied by depolarisation of the motor endplate, as in the muscle paralysis produced by tubocurarine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mobitz block | Second degree atrioventricular block in which there is a ratio of two or more atrial deflections (P waves) to ventricular responses. Mobitz types of atrioventricular block, type I, the dropped beat of the Wenckebach phenomenon; type II, a dropped cardiac cycle that occurs without alteration in the conduction of the preceding intervals. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Wenckebach block | A form of block in any cardiac tissue (most often the atrioventricular junction) in which there is progressive lengthening of conduction until the beat is dropped. (05 Mar 2000) |
| complete A-V block | complete atrioventricular dissociation, complete A-V dissociation |
| Wilson block | The commonest form of right bundle-branch block, characterised in lead I by a tall slender R wave followed by a wider S wave of lower voltage. (05 Mar 2000) |
