Conduction intervals and conduction velocity in the human cardiac conduction system. Studies during open-heart surgery.
Specialized fiber electrograms were recorded in 64 patients during open-heart surgery. Intervals were measured from the proximal His bundle, distal His bundle, and right and left bundle branches to the earliest QRS deflection in the limb lead ECG (pH-Q, dH-Q, RB-Q, and LB-Q interval, respectively). There was an increase of pH-Q intervals with increasing age such that at age 3 months the normal ...
متن کاملPacing the Human Cardiac Conduction System
Specialized fiber electrograms were recorded from selected sites along the His bundle and bundle branches during open-heart surgery in 26 patients. The heart was then paced from the same recording sites. Stimuli applied to the proximal His bundle recording site always resulted in His bundle pacing, which was characterized by a stimulus artifact-to-QRS interval which equaled or very nearly equal...
متن کاملConduction System in Cardiac Rejection
Correlation of electrocardiographic abnormalities occurring postoperatively with lesions of the conduction system found at autopsy was done in 20 dogs which had received cardiac homografts. The incidence of arrhythmias closely paralleled the severity of rejection injury found within the heart and specifically within the conduction system. Severe pathological changes in the conduction system (gr...
متن کاملMotor conduction velocity in the human spinal cord: slowed conduction in multiple sclerosis and radiation myelopathy.
Transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the central nervous system was used to measure motor conduction velocity in the human spinal cord in 21 subjects aged 22 to 75 years (mean 55 years), none of whom had neurological disease. The motor conduction velocity between the sixth cervical (C6) and first lumbar (L1) vertebral levels was 67.4 +/- 9.1 m/s. This probably represents conduction velocity...
متن کاملConduction velocity costs energy
Hodgkin and Adrian’s 1975 hypothesis that the squid axon is optimized for maximum conduction velocity is flawed by (i) the inaccurate value of its prediction for channel density, and (ii) the prohibitive energetic expense entailed by their prediction. Here we investigate the metabolic cost of conduction velocity. By manipulating ion channel density or by manipulating the Nernst battery voltages...
