Third-degree AV block, also known as complete heart block, is characterized by the complete dissociation of electrical impulses between the atria and ventricles, resulting in the atria and ventricles beating independently of each other. This means that all electrical impulses originating above the ventricles are blocked and prevented from reaching the ventricles.
