So if you see an EKG with a prolonged PR interval (larger than 200msec) with bradycardia with no other abnormality, this indicates it is 1st degree AV block.

But at the same time isn't this also sinus bradycardia as well? I had a question that had both as answer choices, but the answer was 1st degree AV block.

Many thanks in advance....

I suppose I'm going to come off as an ass, but all your qs are answered with a simple google search. It's like you've never read FA.

PR interval is prolonged only in 1st degree heart block, and not in sinus bradycardia.
