Second-Degree Interatrial Block in Hemodialysis Patients
Interatrial conduction delays manifest as a prolonged P-wave duration on surface ECG and the term interatrial block (IAB) has been coined. They are usually fixed, but cases of intermittent IAB have been described, suggesting functional conduction block at the Bachmann bundle region. We report 2 cases of patients on chronic hemodialysis therapy presenting with intermittent IAB.
متن کاملAttenuation of interatrial conduction using right atrial septal catheter ablation.
OBJECTIVES We sought to characterize a method of attenuating interatrial conduction using radiofrequency ablated lesions applied to the right atrial septum. BACKGROUND Interatrial conduction occurs in specific zones. Recent data suggest that interatrial conduction can be important in triggering and sustaining atrial fibrillation. Therefore, a method for attenuating interatrial conduction may ...
متن کاملAtrial conduction time, and left atrial mechanical and electromechanical functions in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome: interatrial conduction delay
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders of women during the reproductive period. Cardiovascular risk factors are more frequent in patients with PCOS. We aimed to investigate the P-wave dispersion (Pd), inter- and intra-atrial conduction time and mechanical functions of the left atrium (LA) in patients with PCOS. METHODS Forty-eight patients wi...
متن کاملRight atrial appendage pacing in cardiac resynchronization therapy – haemodynamic consequences of interatrial conduction delay
The present case report describes a patient with an artificial mitral valve and dual chamber pacemaker implanted due to perioperative complete atrio-ventricular block. One year later an upgrade to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) combined with ICD function was performed due to significant progression of heart failure symptoms. Beneficial effects of CRT are demonstrated, but unfavourable ...
متن کاملHuman study of biatrial electrical coupling: determinants of endocardial septal activation and conduction over interatrial connections.
BACKGROUND The relative contribution of the atrial septum and interatrial connections to biatrial activation is a fundamental concept of human cardiac electrophysiology that has yet to be fully characterized. The purpose of the present study was to determine how both atria are coupled electrically. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty patients (16 men; mean age 54+/-11years) with a history of symptomat...
