Persistent Atrial Standstill Due to Atrial Inexcitability

Atrial standstill secondary to atrial inexcitability.

Atrial standstill secondary to atrial inexcitability (atrial quiescence). Recognition and treatment following open-heart surgery.

SUMMARY Atrial standstill secondary to atrial inexcitability or atrial quiescence was diagnosed in 11 patients and atrial standstill, in which atrial excitability was still present though depressed, was diagnosed in two patients during the immediate period following open-heart surgery. Atrial quiescence was successfully treated in six patients and atrial standstill with depressed excitability i...

Persistent right atrial standstill.

An asymptomatic patient with cardiomegaly caused by isolated right atrial standstill is reported. The right atrium showed no evidence of contraction on pressure records or angiographically, while the left atrium functioned normally.

persistent isolated right atrial standstill associated with left atrial tachycardia

introduction atrial standstill is a rare condition, characterized by absence of atrial electrical and mechanical activity evident in surface electrocardiography echocardiography, or fluoroscopy, which is associated with unresponsiveness of atria to maximal output electrical stimulation. this condition can be present with thromboembolic complication, low cardiac output, and sometimes palpitation...
