Short PR interval.
A short PR interval may be associated with an otherwise normal electrocardiogram or a myriad of bizarre electrocardiographic abnormalities. Clinically, the individual may be asymptomatic or experience a variety of complex arrhythmias, which may be disabling and rarely cause sudden death. In life insurance applicants, it is important to recognize these abnormalities and to assess their risk appropriately.
