Dear sir
Thanks for your question.
RBBB is not heart attack. It can be a purely benign entity or it may come as a result of heart attack. It indicates complete or partial loss of conduction through on of the electrical bundles of heart. If isolated, it is not of much significance itself. The prognosis after a heart attack depends upon the symptoms, pumping of heart, risk factors, drug compliance and exercise capacity. People do live good quality of life after heart attack.
