The mechanism of atrioventricular conduction.
Potentials recorded at various sites in the atrioventricular (A-V) conduction system indicate that conduction is continuously electrical in nature and involves no synapse-like (i.e., chemical) conduction. The region between atrium and atrioventricular node has the slowest conduction velocity (.05 M./see.) and lowest safety factor. Conduction through the A-V node is at about .12 M./sec. Results ...
متن کاملLesions of the Atrioventricular Conduction
DURING the repair of congenital defects of the venitricular septum, various disturbances of cardiac function may occur.1'Permanent complete heart block has been the most serious of these disturbances. Right bundle-branch block seems benign. Inereased knowledge of the anatomic features of the atrioventricular (AV) conduction system has resulted in surgical technics that have nearly eliminated co...
متن کاملfulguration of atrioventricular conduction
Twenty nine patients who had had refractory supraventricular tachycardia were studied 4-36 (mean 16) months after transvenous fulguration of the atrioventricular junction. Twenty two had complete atrioventricular block, five partial atrioventricular block, and two had atrioventricular conduction via an accessory atrioventricular pathway. Though all patients were free of palpitation after the pr...
متن کاملHeart Rate and Atrioventricular Nodal Conduction Mechanism and Physiological Implications
This study 1) compares the negative chronotropic and dromotropic actions of adenosine in guinea pig, rat, and rabbit hearts; 2) investigates the mechanism(s) for the different responses; and 3) determines the physiological implications. Isolated perfused hearts were instrumented for measurement of atrial rate and atrioventricular (AV) nodal conduction time. Differences in metabolism of adenosin...
متن کاملAtrioventricular Conduction Defects
A-V conduction was analyzed in 75 patients (mean age, 73 years) with sinus bradycardia (SB) by His bundle (BH) recordings. Forty-five of these patients had normal QRS complexes ('-0.10 sec) and 30 had abnormal QRS complexes (_0.12 sec). The conduction times through the atrium (P-A), A-V node (A-H), and His-Purkinje system (H-V) were measured during normal sinus rhythm and transient right atrial...
