An 80-year-old woman with a history of hypertension—treated with amlodipine and a beta-blocker—presents to her primary care provider for a routine physical examination. Her blood pressure is controlled, and her physical examination is unremarkable. Her pulse is noted to be slow, so a 12-lead ECG is obtained.
